Depending on the tester’s application on various materials, the Rockwell Hardness Tester has a wide range of scales. For hardness testing and determining hardness value, a total of 30 Rockwell hardness scales are provided. The principal load for the Rockwell Regular Scales Testing is either 50kgf, 100kgf, or 150kgf, with a preload of 10kgf. The Superficial Rockwell scales are used for materials with a thickness as thin as 0.15mm, or 0.0006 inches, and they employ a 3kgf preload and one of 15kgf, 30kgf, or 45kgf as the principal loads.
The Rockwell Testing systems depend on the material being tested, including its hardness, thickness, indentation placement, and scale restrictions. The material being tested must have a thickness that is at least ten times greater than what the Rockwell indentation will be when manufactured of the material is.
