Components for various applications need to have great wear resistance in addition to high strength. Usually, this is true whenever two or more components are in motion-related contact with one another. Examples of these include gears, shafts, bolts, pins, etc.

In order to prevent damage from occurring when the surface comes into touch with neighbouring components and reduce wear, high wear resistance eventually entails a hard surface. Because of this, characteristic values are necessary to describe a material’s hardness.

This definition states that the fundamental basis of all hardness assessment techniques is the same. With a specific amount of force, an indenter (such as a ball, cone, pyramid, etc.) is pressed into the material surface being evaluated. The indentation that is left behind is used to calculate the indentation hardness value.

The Halteman File tester is made for measuring the Brinell hardness of fillet welds and other challenging-to-access places. It works in tandem with the Telebrineller. It is advised to cut the typical Telebrineller Test Bars in half for easy handling.

The 5/8″ diameter end of the microscope nose piece can be used to measure impressions in NextGen’s Telebrineller Brinell Hardness Testing System.
