This document specifies two separate methods of verification of testing machines (direct and indirect)
for determining Rockwell hardness in accordance with ISO 6508-1, together with a method for verifying
Rockwell hardness indenters.
The direct verification method is used to determine whether the main parameters associated with
the machine function, such as applied force, depth measurement, and testing cycle timing, fall within
specified tolerances. The indirect verification method uses a number of calibrated reference hardness
blocks to determine how well the machine can measure a material of known hardness.
This document is applicable to stationary and portable hardness testing machines.
Attention is drawn to the fact that the use of tungsten carbide composite for ball indenters is considered
to be the standard type of Rockwell indenter ball.

This document describes how the evaluation of uncertainties in tensile tests can be obtained from tests at room temperature (ISO 6892-1) or elevated temperature (ISO 6892-2). This document reports how it can be applied to tests performed at ambient and elevated temperatures under axial loading conditions with a digital acquisition of force and displacement. NOTE 1 As CWA 15261-2 and UNCERT CoP 07 reports, the tests are assumed to run continuously without interruptions on test pieces that have uniform gauge lengths. NOTE 2 Annex C gives for information an indication of the typical scatter in tensile test results for a variety of materials that have been reported during laboratory inter-comparison exercises.

1,961 ≤ F < 49,03 HV 0,2 to 0,009 807 ≤ F < 1,961 HV 0,001 to The Vickers hardness test is specified in this document for lengths of indentation diagonals between
0,020 mm and 1,400 mm. Using this method to determine Vickers hardness from smaller indentations
is outside the scope of this document as results would suffer from large uncertainties due to the
limitations of optical measurement and imperfections in tip geometry.
The Vickers hardness specified in this document is also applicable for metallic and other inorganic
coatings including electrodeposited coatings, autocatalytic coatings, sprayed coatings and anodic
coatings on aluminium.
This document is applicable to measurements normal to the coated surface and to measurements on
cross-sections, provided that the characteristics of the coating (smoothness, thickness, etc.) permit
accurate readings of the diagonal of the indentation.
This document is not applicable for coatings with thickness less than 0,030 mm when testing normal
to the coating surface. This standard is not applicable for coatings with thickness less than 0,100 mm
when testing a cross-section of the coating. ISO 14577-1 can be used for the determination of hardness
from smaller indentations.”

ISO 5754 specifies the dimensions of an unnotched impact test piece of sintered metal materials. The test piece may be obtained directly by pressing and sintering or by machining a sintered part.
ISO 5754 applies to all sintered metals and alloys, with the exception of hardmetals. However, for certain materials (for example, materials with low porosity or materials with high ductility), it may be more appropriate to use a notched test piece which, in this case, will give results with less scatter. (In this case, refer to ISO 148‑1.)
NOTE For porous sintered materials, the results obtained from impact tests are not necessarily very accurate compared with results obtained from tests on solid metals.

This document establishes verification procedures to determine the accuracy, speed of response, and stability of temperature measurement for materials testing equipment. These procedures are specified for the expected use in fatigue tests on metals where these characteristics are important to the fidelity of tests at high or varying temperature. The principles set out include sufficient provision for both contacting and non-contacting methods of temperature measurement. This document is for the end-to-end verification of registered value compared with “true” specimen temperature at the point of measurement. It cannot be used to specify the correct method or location of measurement. NOTE: The methodologies could be found applicable to test types beyond mechanical fatigue of metals, but that is outside the remit of this document.

This document specifies a method of converting room temperature percentage elongations after
fracture obtained on various proportional and non-proportional gauge lengths to other gauge lengths.
Formula (1), on which conversions are based, is considered to be reliable when applied to carbon,
carbon manganese, molybdenum and chromium molybdenum steels within the tensile strength range
300 N/mm2 to 700 N/mm2 and in the hot-rolled, hot-rolled and normalized or annealed conditions, with
or without tempering.
These conversions are not applicable to:
a) cold reduced steels;
b) quenched and tempered steels;
c) austenitic steels.
These conversions are not applicable when the gauge length exceeds 25 S0 or where the width to
thickness ratio of the test piece exceeds 20.

This document applies to stress and/or force-controlled thermo-mechanical fatigue (TMF) testing. Both forms of control, force or stress, can be applied according to this document. This document describes the equipment, specimen preparation, and presentation of the test results in order to determine TMF properties.

This document specifies the conditions for performing torsional, constant-amplitude, nominally elastic stress fatigue tests on metallic specimens without deliberately introducing stress concentrations. The tests are typically carried out at ambient temperature or an elevated temperature in air by applying a pure couple to the specimen about its longitudinal axis. While the form, preparation and testing of specimens of circular cross-section and tubular cross-section are described in this document, component and other specialized types of testing are not included. Similarly, low-cycle torsional fatigue tests carried out under constant-amplitude angular displacement control, which lead to failure in a few thousand cycles, are also excluded.

This document specifies a method of converting room temperature percentage elongations after fracture obtained on various proportional and non-proportional gauge lengths to other gauge lengths. Formula (1), on which conversions are based, is considered to be reliable when applied to austenitic stainless steels within the tensile strength range 450 to 750 N/mm2 and in the solution treated condition. These conversions are not applicable to: a) cold reduced steels; b) quenched and tempered steels; c) non-austenitic steels. These conversions are not applicable when the gauge length exceeds 25√S0 or where the width to thickness ratio of the test piece exceeds 20.
