Hardness Testing

Hardness is a measure of a material’s resistance to localised plastic deformation, typically induced by indentation, scratching, or rebound.

At WHE NDT, we provide accurate and reliable hardness testing, with results reported in the following scales:

Leeb (HL)
Brinell (HB)
Vickers (HV)
Rockwell (HRA, HRB, HRC)

Hardness testing can be applied to a wide range of materials and is commonly used to:

Verify material properties
Support weld procedure qualification
Detect heat treatment issues
Assess in-service degradation

Our experienced operators can carry out hardness testing on site or at our dedicated test facility, depending on project requirements and access constraints.

If you require any further information or would like to discuss your hardness testing requirements, please contact: info@whendt.co.uk
