2.1 Tools
The following are tools used for hardness testing:
 Hardness testing machine
 Indenter
 Sandaper
 Stingy
2.2 Materials
The following are materials used for hardness testing:
 AISI 1045 without treatment
 Hardening
 Normalizing
 Annealing

4. Standard Test
Test standards used in static hardness testing are
4.1 ASTM E10 for the Brinell test method,
4.2 ASTM E18 for rockwell testing
4.3 ASTM E92 for vickers testing
5. Procedur Experiment
The following is the procedure for carrying out a hardness test:
1) do specimen preparation by leveling the surface
2) install the indenter on the indenter holder
3) adjust the position of the indentation on the specimen as shown below
4) set the appropriate loading and indentation time on the machine
5) run loading
6) in the Brinell test the specimen used 1045
 observes the results of indentation traces by measuring d1 and d2 then calculates
the hardness value or HRB
7) in the Vickers test the specimen used 1045
observes the results of indentation traces by measuring D1 and D2 then calculates
the hardness value or HRV
8) in rockwell testing
see the scale indicated by the needle on the hardness scale or HRB
