  2. Rockwell scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockwell_scale

    A Rockwell hardness tester. The Rockwell scale is a hardness scale based on indentation hardness of a material. The Rockwell test measures the depth of penetration of an indenter under a large load (major load) compared to the penetration made by a preload (minor load). [1]

  4. Hardness comparison - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardness_comparison

    A variety of hardness-testing methods are available, including the Vickers, Brinell, Rockwell, Meyer and Leeb tests. Although it is impossible in many cases to give an exact conversion, it is possible to give an approximate material-specific comparison table for steels.

  5. Hardness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardness

    When testing coatings, scratch hardness refers to the force necessary to cut through the film to the substrate. The most common test is Mohs scale, which is used in mineralogy. One tool to make this measurement is the sclerometer. Another tool used to make these tests is the pocket hardness tester. This tool consists of a scale arm with ...

  6. Indentation hardness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indentation_hardness

    When testing metals, indentation hardness correlates roughly linearly with tensile strength, [1] but it is an imperfect correlation often limited to small ranges of strength and hardness for each indentation geometry. This relation permits economically important nondestructive testing of bulk metal deliveries with lightweight, even portable ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_blade_materials

    The hardness of steel is usually stated as a number on the Rockwell C scale (HRC). The Rockwell scale is a hardness scale based on the resistance to indentation a material has. This differs from other scales such as the Mohs scale (scratch resistance testing), which is used in mineralogy.

  9. High-speed steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-speed_steel

    The addition of cobalt increases heat resistance, and can give a hardness up to 70 Rockwell C. [14] M35 M35 is similar to M2, but with 5% cobalt added. M35 is also known as Cobalt Steel, HSSE or HSS-E. It will cut faster and last longer than M2. [15] M42 M42 is a molybdenum-series high-speed steel alloy with an additional 8% cobalt. [14]
