Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation on the meaning of ISO specific terms and expressions related to conformity assessment,
as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the
Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following URL: www.iso.org/iso/foreword.html .
The committee responsible for this document is ISO/TC 164, Mechanical testing of metals, Subcommittee
SC 3, Hardness testing.
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 6508-1:2015), of which it constitutes a
minor revision in order to clarify the scope of this part of ISO 6508.
ISO 6508 consists of the following parts, under the general title Metallic materials — Rockwell

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 6508-1:2016(E)
Metallic materials — Rockwell hardness test —
Part 1:
Test method
1 Scope
This part of ISO 6508 specifies the method for Rockwell regular and Rockwell superficial hardness
tests for scales A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, K, 15N, 30N, 45N, 15T, 30T, and 45T for metallic materials and is
applicable to stationary and portable hardness testing machines.
For specific materials and/or products, other specific International Standards apply (for instance,
ISO 3738-1 and ISO 4498).
NOTE 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. Steel indenter balls are allowed to continue to be
used only when complying with Annex A.
2 Normative references
The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are
indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated
references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.
ISO 6508-2:2015, Metallic materials — Rockwell hardness test — Part 2: Verification and calibration of
testing machines and indenters
ISO 6508-3:2015, Metallic materials — Rockwell hardness test — Part 3: Calibration of reference blocks
3 Principle
An indenter of specified size, shape, and material is forced into the surface of a test specimen under two
force levels using the specific conditions defined in Clause 7. The specified preliminary force is applied
and the initial indentation depth is measured, followed by the application and removal of a specified
additional force, returning to the preliminary force. The final indentation depth is then measured and
the Rockwell hardness value is derived from the difference, h, in the final and initial indentation depths
and the two constants N and S (see Figure 1, Table 1, and Table 2) as shown in Formula (1):
h
Rockwell hardness=−N (1)
S
