BS EN ISO 6508-2:2006 Metallic materials - Rockwell hardness test - Verification and calibration of testing machines (scales A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, K, N, T)
This part of ISO 6508 specifies a method of verification of testing machines for determining Rockwell
hardness (scales A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, K, N, T) in accordance with ISO 6508-1.
It specifies a direct method for checking the main functions of the machine operation and an indirect method
suitable for the overall checking of the machine. The indirect method may be used on its own for periodic
routine checking of the machine in service.
If a testing machine is also to be used for other methods of hardness testing, it shall be verified independently
for each method.
This part of ISO 6508 is applicable to portable hardness testing machines.
