Hawkeye® Pro Hardy Borescopes are rugged and bright. The quarter inch diameter Pro Hardy gives 3x the illumination of the Pro Slim. The Hawkeye Pro Hardy Borescope excels at looking into the larger, dark spaces of diesel and aircraft cylinders, tanks, pressure vessels, pipes, and even wall cavities.

| Relay Optics: | e2 endoGRINs gradient index glass lenses |
| Environmental | |
| Temperature Range: | Officially -4° to 248°F (-20° to 120°C) |
| Pressure: | All Hawkeye borescopes we designed only for use at ambient pressure, however, we have several customers who have successfully used Hawkeye Borescopes at pressures up to 500 PSI and down to 10-6 Torr. As the scopes were not specifically designed for this, the operator does so at his own risk. |
| Chemical Resistance: | All Hawkeye Pro Rigid borescopes (tube only, not the eyepiece end) are water tight and are resistant to most hydrocarbons; oils, gasoline, hydraulic fluid, jet fuel, etc. Exposure to Acids and strong Alkali should be avoided as it will attack the optical window. |
| Note: Hawkeye Pro Rigid Borescopes can be made to operate up to 572°F (300°C). These scope were not designed to operate below 0°. However, several of our customers have successfully used the scopes in liquid Nitrogen at 77° K. | |
