  2. Hardness comparison - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardness_comparison

    ISO 18265: "Metallic materials — Conversion of hardness values" (2013) ASTM E140-12B(2019)e1: "Standard Hardness Conversion Tables for Metals Relationship Among Brinell Hardness, Vickers Hardness, Rockwell Hardness, Superficial Hardness, Knoop Hardness, Scleroscope Hardness, and Leeb Hardness" (2019)

  3. Brinell hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brinell_hardness_test

    The "10" is the ball diameter in millimeters. The "3000" is the force in kilograms force. The hardness may also be shown as XXX HB YYD 2. The XXX is the force to apply (in kgf) on a material of type YY (5 for aluminum alloys, 10 for copper alloys, 30 for steels). Thus a typical steel hardness could be written: 250 HB 30D 2. It could be a ...

  4. Specific strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_strength

    The SI unit for specific strength is Pa⋅m 3 /kg, or N⋅m/kg, which is dimensionally equivalent to m 2 /s 2, though the latter form is rarely used. Specific strength has the same units as specific energy , and is related to the maximum specific energy of rotation that an object can have without flying apart due to centrifugal force .

  5. Vickers hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vickers_hardness_test

    To convert the Vickers hardness number to SI units the hardness number in kilograms-force per square millimeter (kgf/mm 2) has to be multiplied with the standard gravity, , to get the hardness in MPa (N/mm 2) and furthermore divided by 1000 to get the hardness in GPa.

  6. Kip (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kip_(unit)

    A kip is a US customary unit of force.It equals 1000 pounds-force, and is used primarily by structural engineers to indicate forces where the value represented in pound-force is inefficient.

  7. Specific weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_weight

    The specific weight, also known as the unit weight (symbol γ, the Greek letter gamma), is a volume-specific quantity defined as the weight W divided by the volume V of a material: = / Equivalently, it may also be formulated as the product of density, ρ, and gravity acceleration, g: = Its unit of measurement in the International System of Units (SI) is newton per cubic metre (N/m 3), with ...

  8. Steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel

    The density of steel varies based on the alloying constituents but usually ranges between 7,750 and 8,050 kg/m 3 (484 and 503 lb/cu ft), or 7.75 and 8.05 g/cm 3 (4.48 and 4.65 oz/cu in). [ 8 ] Even in a narrow range of concentrations of mixtures of carbon and iron that make steel, several different metallurgical structures, with very different ...

  9. Kilogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilogram

    The kilogram (also spelled kilogramme [1]) is the base unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI), having the unit symbol kg. [1] The word "kilogram" is formed from the combination of the metric prefix kilo- (meaning one thousand) and gram ; [ 2 ] it is colloquially shortened to " kilo " (plural "kilos").
