About this document
Rockwell Hardness of Carbon Steels by Thomas Jefferson Antonio is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document describes an experiment to test the Rockwell hardness of different carbon steels. Carbon steels with varying carbon contents (AISI 1015, 1045, and 1075) were tested under a 150kg load using a diamond indenter. The results showed that steel with higher carbon content had higher Rockwell hardness numbers, with AISI 1075 scoring highest at 94, AISI 1045 scoring 82, and AISI 1015 scoring 59. It was concluded that carbon content directly affects steel hardness, with increased carbon leading to incr
