1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers the determination of the Leeb hardness of steel, cast steel, and cast iron (Part A), including the methods for the verification of Leeb hardness testing instruments (Part B), and the calibration of standardized test blocks (Part C).
NOTE 1—The original title of this standard was “Standard Test Method for Equotip Hardness Testing of Steel Products.”
1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the
Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

3. Terminology
3.1 Definitions:
3.1.1 calibration—determination of the values of the significant operating parameters of the instrument by comparison with values indicated by a reference instrument or by a set of reference standards.
3.1.2 Leeb hardness number—a number equal to the ratio of the rebound velocity to the impact velocity of a 0.118 in. [3 mm] or 0.197 in. [5 mm] (based on the type of impact
device) diameter spherically shaped tungsten carbide, silicon nitride, or diamond tipped impact body, multiplied by 1000.
L=Rebound Velocity/Impact Velocity*1000
The Leeb hardness number is followed by the symbol HL with one or more suffix characters representing the type of impact device.
3.1.3 Leeb hardness test—a dynamic hardness test method using a calibrated instrument that impacts a spherically shaped tungsten carbide, silicon nitride, or diamond tipped body with a fixed velocity (generated by a spring force) onto a surface of the material under test. The ratio of the rebound velocity to the impact velocity of the impact body is a measure of the hardness of the material under test.
3.1.4 surface finish—all references to surface finish in this test method are defined as surface roughness (that is, Ra = average roughness value, AA = arithmetic average).
3.1.5 verification—checking or testing the instrument to ensure conformance with this test method.
