Hardness Converter

Convert between hardness scales including Rockwell, Vickers, Brinell, and Knoop.

30 HRC =

350.3

Vickers (HV)

Note: Conversions are approximate and based on carbon steel. Actual values may vary by material.

30 HRC in all scales

Rockwell C (HRC)51
Rockwell B (HRB)N/A
Vickers (HV)350.3
Brinell (HB)333.6
Knoop (HK)368.7

Hardness Scale Ranges

Rockwell C (HRC)

20-70 (hardened steel)

Rockwell B (HRB)

0-100 (soft steel, brass)

Vickers (HV)

100-1000+ (all materials)

Brinell (HB)

50-650 (metals)
