A.A. WHITE, S.M. BEST, in Bone Repair Biomaterials, 2009 Hardness. Hardness tests are a measure of resistance to indentation and are notable for being fast, easy and non-destructive. A force is applied to an indenter, such as a steel ball or diamond pyramid, and the resulting size or depth of the indentation in the surface of the material is measured …

The Vickers hardness test method was developed by Robert L. Smith and George E. Sandland at Vickers Ltd as an alternative to the Brinell method to measure the hardness of materials. The Vickers hardness test method can be also used as a microhardness test method, which is mostly used for small parts, thin sections, or case depth work.

Machinists define scratch hardness as the ability of a material to resist scratches on the surface. Scratches are narrow continuous lines on the surface of materials. When a sharp, more rigid material brushes through the surface of a softer material, it causes scratches on the surface of such materials.

6.7.6.4 Overview of Brinell hardness testing. The Brinell hardness lab test method consists of indenting the test material with a 10-mm-diameter hardened steel or carbide ball subjected to a load of 3000 kg. For softer materials, the load can be reduced to 1500 kg or 500 kg to avoid excessive indentation.
