General tips
Rockwell correction value for testing cylindrical specimens
If a Rockwell test is conducted on cylindrical parts, then, due to the lower resistance of the test surface with respect to the indenter, the following correction values – depending on the specimen curvature radius and the Rockwell scale used – must be added to the test result (acc. to ISO 6508-1).
