The ASTM E10-23 standard specifies the test method of brinell hardness of metal materials. This method evaluates the hardness value by applying a certain load on the surface of metal materials, using the steel ball of hardness gauge to press into the surface of the material, and measuring the diameter of indentation. The standard is suitable for various metal materials, especially softer or rougher metals. Mechanical Properties such as compressive strength and abrasion resistance of materials can be effectively evaluated through brinell hardness testing. The standard details the test equipment, operating procedures and result calculation methods to ensure the accuracy and reliability of test results. It is widely used in quality control, production monitoring and performance evaluation of metal materials.
