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. Hardness comparison table [ edit ]
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.
