Brinell hardness test

Test of the hardness of a substance according to the area of indentation made by a 10 mm/0.4 in hardened steel or sintered tungsten carbide ball under standard loading conditions in a test machine. The resulting Brinell number is equal to the load (kg) divided by the surface area (mm2) and is named after its inventor, Swedish metallurgist Johann Brinell.
