This small and very manageable tool is perfectly designed to quickly test the ripeness and proper picking maturity of fresh fruit and vegetables in the field.

The FT series Fruit Penetrometer measures the penetration and squashing of fruit pulp by using an indenter tip of specific dimension, to give one of the most accurate tests available. The resulting pressure is displayed on the dial in (Lb) Pounds and also (Kg) Kilograms.

With its compact size, these penetrometers are one of the most practical and accurate Fruit Testers available. They can be used either handheld or drill-press mounted. 

All penetrometers include a skin peeler and splash plate for convenient use.
