Knoop hardness test – Verification and calibration of testing machines
Published By | Publication Date | Number of Pages |
JIS | 2020-12-21 | 35 |
This Standard specifies a method of verification and calibration of testing machines for determining Knoop hardness in accordance with JIS Z 2251-1.
A direct method of verification and calibration is specified for the testing machine, indenter and the diagonal length measuring system. An indirect verification method using reference blocks is specified for the overall checking of the machine.
If a testing machine is also to be used for other methods of hardness testing, it shall be verified independently for each method.
It should be noted that using the method specified in this Standard for determination from indentations < 20 µm in diagonal length may cause large uncertainties in the results.
NOTE The International Standard corresponding to this Standard and the symbol of degree of correspondence are as follows.

In addition, symbols which denote the degree of correspondence in the contents between the relevant International Standard and JIS are IDT (identical), MOD (modified), and NEQ (not equivalent) according to ISO/IEC Guide 21-1.
WARNING Persons carrying out tests based on this Standard should be familiar with normal laboratory practice. This Standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with its use.
