Yide Casting has producing this material grade for many years. Herein, we will […]

Introduction to Brinell Hardness

Brinell hardness is a standard that indicates the hardness of a material. Measured by Brinell hardness tester. It was first proposed by the Swede J.A. Brinell, thus called Brinell hardness. Press a hardened steel ball with a diameter of D into the surface of the metal material to be tested with a certain load P. […]

Machining Surface Finish Chart (2)

Machining surface finish Surface finish is another term for surface roughness. The surface finish is put forward according to the human visual point of view. Meanwhile, the surface roughness is put forward according to the actual surface micro-geometry. Because of its conformity with international standards (ISO), China adopted surface roughness after the 1980s and abolished […]
