ASTM B648-23 PDF

Scope: 1.1 This test method covers the determination of indentation hardness of aluminum alloys using a Barcol Impressor. 1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses after SI units are provided for information only and are not considered standard. 1.2.1 Some Barcol Impressors are for use on plastics and are not included in this test method and should not be used for aluminum alloys. 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.
