The Rockwell hardness number is a measure of the non-recoverable indentation after a heavy load of 588N for a period of 15s, and subsequently reduced to a minor load of 98N for another duration of 15 s.
A major load of 60,100 lb or 50 kg is then applied and released and the difference between the major and minor load is automatically registered by an indicator which reads directly the Rockwell hardness number.
