  2. 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.

  3. Brinell hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brinell_hardness_test

    Brinell hardness is sometimes quoted in megapascals; the Brinell hardness number is multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity, 9.80665 m/s 2, to convert it to megapascals. The Brinell hardness number can be correlated with the ultimate tensile strength (UTS), although the relationship is dependent on the material, and therefore determined ...

  5. Abrasion resistant steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abrasion_resistant_steel

    The hardness of abrasion resistant steel is determined by a Brinell hardness test. This test uses a small steel ball to inflict force on a material. The indentation created by the steel ball is then measured and used to calculate Brinell hardness number (BHN).

  6. Meyer hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meyer_hardness_test

    An advantage of the Meyer test is that it is less sensitive to the applied load, especially compared to the Brinell hardness test. For cold worked materials the Meyer hardness is relatively constant and independent of load, whereas for the Brinell hardness test it decreases with higher loads. For annealed materials the Meyer hardness increases ...

  8. Barcol hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barcol_hardness_test

    The governing standard for the Barcol hardness test is ASTM D 2583. [4] Barcol hardness is measured on a scale from 0 to 100 with the typical range being between 50B and 90B. A measurement of 60B is roughly equivalent to a Shore hardness of 80D or a Rockwell hardness M100.

  9. Leeb rebound hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leeb_rebound_hardness_test

    The Leeb Rebound Hardness Test (LRHT) invented by Swiss company Proceq SA is one of the four most used methods for testing metal hardness. This portable method is mainly used for testing sufficiently large workpieces (mainly above 1 kg).
