Value Collection HTB00062B Rockwell C Hardness Test Block

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HTB00062B is a Rockwell C scale hardness calibration test block rated at 62 HRC, placing it in the high hardness range. It is used to verify and calibrate Rockwell hardness testers before and during use, ensuring accurate readings across the full testing process. The block provides a known reference surface that technicians check against their instrument output to confirm the tester is performing within acceptable tolerance. Quality control technicians, metallurgical lab personnel, and industrial inspectors use this block as part of standard instrument verification routines.

This test block is suited for calibration and verification of Rockwell hardness testers operating on the C scale, which is commonly applied to hardened steels, tool steels, and other hard metallic materials. The 62 HRC rating makes it appropriate for validating tester performance at the upper end of the Rockwell C range, where many hardened cutting tools, dies, and wear-resistant components fall. It ships as a single-piece block ready for immediate use in a lab or shop floor environment.

Key Features

• Rockwell C scale calibration reference rated at 62 HRC
• High hardness range designation for upper-range tester verification
• Single-piece block format for straightforward handling and storage
• Provides a known reference surface to confirm hardness tester accuracy
• Applicable to hardened steels, tool steels, and similar hard metallic workpieces

Compatibility

Designed for use with Rockwell hardness testers that operate on the C scale. Consult your instrument manufacturer's documentation to confirm reference block specifications required for your specific tester model.

Installation Notes

This test block is handled rather than installed. Place the block on a clean, stable anvil surface free of debris before taking calibration readings. Follow the hardness tester manufacturer's recommended procedure for the number of verification indentations and their placement on the block surface. Avoid taking readings too close to the block edge or to previous indentation sites, as these can produce inaccurate reference values.
