Scope1.1 This practice covers the determination of indentationhardness of metallic materials using comparis

3、on hardnesstesters.1.2 This practice applies only to those comparison hardnesstesters, normally portable, that use comparative test bars thathave been standardized according to Test Method E10 as abasis for comparison.1.3 Calibration of comparative test bars (rods), used forcomparison to determine h

4、ardness numbers, is also covered bythis practice.1.4 The impression force used during comparison hardnesstesting is normally an impact load applied by striking ahammer on the appropriate areas as outlined in the manufac-turers instructions.1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstand

5、ard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the appli

Significance and Use3.1 The comparative hardness test is an empirical dyna

7、micindentation hardness test. Comparative hardness tests provideuseful information about metallic materials. This informationmay correlate to tensile strength, wear resistance, ductility, heattreatment condition, or other physical characteristics of metal-lic materials, and may be useful in quality

8、control and selectionof materials.3.2 Comparative hardness testing at a specific location on apart may not represent the physical characteristics of the wholepart or end product.4. Apparatus4.1 Comparison hardness testers are used principally fortesting articles that are too large or unwieldy to be

9、tested in theusual types of testing machines, for testing parts of fixedstructures, or for testing under any conditions that require thatthe indenting force be applied in a direction other than vertical.4.1.1 Required equipment includes an apparatus that con-tains the impression ball and a slot or s

10、pacing to insert thecomparative test bar (rod), the comparative test bar, a structureto apply the impact (anvil), and an impacting tool, normally ahammer. This apparatus is designed to allow a ball impressionto be produced on the standard rod simultaneously with oneproduced on the piece to be tested

11、. Comparison of theimpression diameters together with the hardness of the com-parative bar (rod) is used to determine hardness of the part.4.1.2 The structure to convey the impact to the test bar,impression ball, and part being tested is designed with thestriking surface for the impacting tool cente

Use of a tungsten carbide ball mayresult in fracture or spalling of the ball.4.1.5.3 The ball shall be inspected regularly according to theequipment manufacturers recommendatio

17、ns to ensure accu-racy.4.2 Measuring MicroscopeThe divisions of the microm-eter scale of the microscope, or other measuring devices usedfor measuring the impression diameter, shall be such as topermit the direct measuring of the diameter to 0.1 mm and theestimation of the diameter to 0.05 mm.5. Test

18、 Parts5.1 Parts tested by this hardness testing practice vary greatlyin form since it is frequently desirable to make the impressionupon a part to be used in the finished product rather than upona sample test specimen.5.1.1 DimensionsThe thickness of the tested part shall besuch that no bulge or oth

19、er marking showing the effect of theload appears on the side of the piece opposite the impression.In any event, the thickness of the part shall be at least ten timesthe depth of the indentation. The minimum width shall be atleast two and one half times the diameter of the indentation.5.1.2 FinishWhe

20、n necessary, the surface on which theimpression is to be made shall be filed, ground, machined, orpolished with abrasive material so that the edge of theimpression shall be defined clearly enough to permit themeasurement of the diameter to the specified accuracy.

Suffi-cient metal shall be removed to eliminate decarburized metal.5.2 SupportAll parts to be tested shall be adequatelysupported to prevent any movement or deflection duringapplication of the impact load.6. Verification of Apparatus and Calibration of Test Bars6.1 Verificatio

22、n of ApparatusThe hardness-testing appara-tus (including test bars) shall be verified by performing tests onBrinell blocks that have been standardized according to therequirements of Test Method E10.6.1.1 Full verification of the apparatus shall be performedprior to use when new, and upon replacemen

23、t of the impressionball. The full verification shall include testing at least oneBrinell test block 3 times. The average of the three measure-ments shall be within 65 % of the Brinell value of the testblock.6.1.2 Periodic verifications are recommended at the begin-ning of each day the comparative te

24、ster is used, or during usageas deemed necessary. Periodic verifications should be per-formed using Brinell test blocks within 615 % of the expectedBrinell hardness of the parts being tested. One measurement issatisfactory for periodic testing. The result of the periodic testmeasurement should be wi

25、thin 65 % of the Brinell value of thetest block to be considered to be in compliance with thispractice.6.2 Calibration of Comparative BarsThe Brinell hardnessof the comparative test bars shall be determined by the test barmanufacturer using a 10 mm diameter ball and a 3000 kg loadaccording to Test M

26、ethod E10 on each of the four faces of thetest bar at approximately the mid-length of the bar. If the testbar is too soft to permit the use of a 3000 kg load, then a1500 kg load shall be used. The hardness values obtained shallnot vary from each other by more than 62 %. The ends of thebar shall be p

27、ermanently marked with the average hardnessvalue, as well as the applied load if the 1500 kg load was usedby the manufacturer prior to shipment.7. Procedure7.1 Assemble the comparative test bar into the apparatusmaking sure a minimum distance of no less than 5 mm willexist between diameter of the im

28、pression to be made and anyother indentations on the face. Minimum distance of theindentation diameter from the edge of the part tested shall be12.5 mm. If the apparatus is equipped with a presetting barstop, ensure the fixture is properly in place. Place the apparatuson the surface of the component

29、 to be tested and apply theimpact load usinga1to214 kg hammer. It is essential to applya well guided, short blow in order to avoid a rebound and thusa double blow that may produce an erroneous result bydamaging the sharp edge of the ball impression.NOTE 1A hammer weight of 2 to 5 lb may be used inst

30、ead of thekilogram rating.7.2 Impression DiameterThe diameter of the impressionproduced on the comparative test bar should not exceed 4.2mm. If a larger impression is produced, the comparative barmay give way laterally and the test result may be in error. Inthis case the use of the 1500-kg load shou

31、ld be considered (see6.2).7.3 MeasurementsTwo diameters of each impression atright angles to each other shall be measured to within 0.05 mmand their mean value used as the basis for subsequent calcu-lations.7.3.1 If the two diameter measurements differ by more than0.1 mm, the readings shall be disca

32、rded in accordance withTest Methods and Definitions A370, and the test repeated.7.4 Determination of Part HardnessEmploying the cali-bration device or mathematical equation supplied by themanufacturer for the apparatus, determine the hardness of thepart by using both (test bar and part) impression d

33、iameters andthe hardness of the comparative bar in accordance with theequipment manufacturers instructions. Annex A1 gives detailsof typical formulae used in calculating the comparison hard-ness.8. Report8.1 The report shall include the following information:8.1.1 Indentation hardness number of the

34、part or componentas calculated in 7.4 with the designation HBC and the Brinellhardness number of the comparative test bar,8.1.1.1 The result shall be written as shown in the followingexample:232HBC/240 where 232 is the hardness determined asdefined in 7.4 and 240 is the Brinell hardness of the compa

36、INATIONA1.1 As an example, the hardness of the part being testedmay be determined from the following equation, based on theuse of a 10 mm diameter ball. However the manufacturer of theactual apparatus used may use another formula for obtainingthe comparison hardness value as stated in 7.4.B15 B210 2

37、 =100 2 D12!/10 2 =100 2 D22!where:B1= comparison hardness of the part being tested,B2= Brinell hardness of the comparative bar,D12= diameter of impression in the comparative bar,D22= diameter of impression in the part being tested.ASTM International takes no position respecting the validity of any
