ROCKWELL AND BRINELL

HARDNESS TEST
• Objective – To find the Rockwell Hardness
number of mild steel and aluminium
• Apparatus Used – Hardness Testing machine ,
Speciman ( Mild steel and Aluminium )
DATA FOR ROCKWELL TEST –
Rockwell test for mild steel --


TEST FOR MILD STEEL ● TEST 1 ● TEST 2

● LOAD
• ● 100kgf ● 100kgf


● ROCKWELL ● 77.5 ● 80
HARDNESS
NUMBER (RHC)

Average Hardness Number = (77.5+80)/2 =


78.75
• Rockwell Test For Aluminium –


TEST FOR ALUMINUEM
● TEST 1 ● TEST 2


● LOAD ● 100 ● 100


● ROCKWELL ● 50.5 ● 51.5

HARDNESS
NUMBER (RHN)

Average Hardness number for AL


=( 50.5+51.5)/2 = 51
BRINELL TEST FOR MS
Load(P) = 187.5 kgf
Diameter of Ball Indenter = 5mm
Measured Dimeter = 1.4 mm
Material – Mild steel

HBW = 2P
PI *D [ D –(D^2-d^2)^(0.5)]

HBW = 2*187.5
3.14*5[5-(25-1.98)^(0.5)]
= 119.42

= 119.42
BRINELL TEST FOR ALUMINIUM
Load (P) = 250 kgf
Dimeter of Ball indenter = 5mm
Measured dimeter for AL = 1.8 mm
Material – Aluminium
HBW = 2P
PI *D[D-(D^2-d^2)^(0.5]
HBW = 2*250
3.14*5[5-(25-3.24)]
= 95.05
