upon the depth of penetration of either a diamond 2 130 90 65 62 -35.8478
point or a steel ball. Deep penetration indicated a 3 130 100 70 55 -34.8073
material having a low Rockwell Hardness number. 4 140 80 65 60 -35.5630
2. However, a low penetration indicates a material 5 140 90 70 58 -35.2686
6 140 100 55 66 -36.3909
having a high Rockwell Hardness number. The
7 150 80 70 65 -36.2583
Rockwell Hardness number is based upon the

difference in the depth to which a penetrator is 9 150 100 65 58 -35.2686
