Shore hardness is a measure of the resistance of a material to the penetration of a needle under a defined spring force. It is determined as a number from 0 to 100 on the scales A or D. The higher the number, the higher the hardness. The letter A is used for flexible types and the letter D for rigid types. Though, the ranges do overlap. This chart shows a comparison of the Shore hardness A and ...

Hardness, as applied to most materials, and in specific metals, is a valuable, revealing and widely used mechanical test that has been in use in different forms for over 250 years. Certainly, as a material property, its importance and value cannot be understated, and the information from a hardness test can complement and frequently be used in tandem with other material verification techniques ...

The Rockwell hardness scale gets its name from its inventors, Hugh M. Rockwell and Stanley P. Rockwell. The Rockwell brothers were metallurgists working in a Connecticut ball bearing factory back in the early 1900s. They recognized the need for accurately and quickly testing metal strength in bearing races. They also required a clear method for reporting strength test results.

Durometer Shore Hardness Scale. There are different Shore Hardness scales for measuring the hardness of different materials. These scales were invented so that people can discuss these materials and have a common point of reference. As you can see from the chart below, there is overlap on the different scales. For example a material with a Shore hardness of 95A is also a Shore 45D. The …

Shore D Hardness is a standardized test consisting in measuring the depth of penetration of a specific indenter. Test methods used to measure Shore D Hardness are ASTM D2240 and ISO 868. The hardness value is determined by the penetration of the Durometer indenter foot into the sample. Shore Hardness measures are dimensionless. It goes between ...

The Janka hardness test measures the lb/in2 required to embed a .444-inch steel ball to half its diameter in wood. It is one of the best measures of the ability of a wood species to withstand denting and wear. It is also a good indicator of how hard or easy a species is to saw or nail. Northern Red Oak, for example, has a Janka hardness rating of 1290. Brazilian cherry, with a rating of 2350 ...

Comparison of Hardness Scales: The following table compares the various hardness scales. Assumptions are that the metal tested is homogeneous to a depth several times that of the indentation. To the extent that the metal being tested is not homogeneous, errors are introduced because different loads and different shapes of penetrators meet the resistance of metal of varying hardness, …

The Janka hardness test (from the Austrian-born emigrant Gabriel Janka, 1864–1932) measures the resistance of a sample of wood to denting and wear. It measures the force required to embed an 11.28 millimetres (0.444 in) diameter steel ball halfway into a sample of wood. A common use of Janka hardness ratings is to determine whether a species is suitable for use as flooring.
