Brinell Hardness to Rockwell Hardness Conversion Table

These Conversion Tables presents data in the Rockwell A, B, C, D, E and F hardness range on the relationship among Brinell hardness,Vickers hardness, Rockwell superficial, hardness, and Shore Scleroscope hardness of nonaustenitic steels including carbon, alloy, and tool steels in the as-forged, annealed, normalized, and quenched and tempered conditions provided that they are homogeneous
