  3. Brinell hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brinell_hardness_test

    If Meyer's index is greater than 2.2, then the ratio increases. [ 1 ] The Brinell hardness is designated by the most commonly used test standards (ASTM E10-14 [ 2 ] and ISO 6506–1:2005) as HBW ( H from hardness, B from brinell and W from the material of the indenter, tungsten (wolfram) carbide).

  4. Lead - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead

    Lead fishing weights. Lead's close-packed face-centered cubic structure and high atomic weight result in a density [24] of 11.34 g/cm 3, which is greater than that of common metals such as iron (7.87 g/cm 3), copper (8.93 g/cm 3), and zinc (7.14 g/cm 3). [25] This density is the origin of the idiom to go over like a lead balloon.

  5. Engineering drawing abbreviations and symbols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_drawing...

    Technical standards exist to provide glossaries of abbreviations, acronyms, and symbols that may be found on engineering drawings. Many corporations have such standards, which define some terms and symbols specific to them; on the national and international level, ASME standard Y14.38 [1] is one of the standards. Australia utilises the ...

  6. SAE steel grades - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_steel_grades

    The alloy number is simply a general classifier, whereas it is the specification itself that narrows down the steel to a very specific standard. The SAE steel grade system's correspondence to other alloy numbering systems, such as the ASTM-SAE unified numbering system (UNS), can be seen in cross-referencing tables (including the ones given below).

  7. Solder alloys - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solder_alloys

    Soldering copper pipes using a propane torch and a lead-free solder. Solder is a metallic material that is used to connect metal workpieces. The choice of specific solder alloys depends on their melting point, chemical reactivity, mechanical properties, toxicity, and other properties. Hence a wide range of solder alloys exist, and only major ...

  8. Elastic properties of the elements (data page) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elastic_properties_of_the...

    Elastic properties describe the reversible deformation (elastic response) of a material to an applied stress.They are a subset of the material properties that provide a quantitative description of the characteristics of a material, like its strength.

  9. Type metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_metal

    A sort made from type metal. In printing, type metal refers to the metal alloys used in traditional typefounding and hot metal typesetting.Historically, type metal was an alloy of lead, tin and antimony in different proportions depending on the application, be it individual character mechanical casting for hand setting, mechanical line casting or individual character mechanical typesetting and ...
