Standard Test Method for Indentation Hardness of Metallic Materials by Comparison Hardness Testers

Importancia y uso:

4.1 The comparative hardness test is an empirical dynamic indentation hardness test. Comparative hardness tests provide useful information about metallic materials. This information may correlate to tensile strength, wear resistance, ductility, heat treatment condition, or other physical characteristics of metallic materials, and may be useful in quality control and selection of materials.

4.2 Comparative hardness testing at a specific location on a test part may not represent the physical characteristics of the whole test part or end product.
