6 Welding & Metallurgy Tools

Welding & Metallurgy Calculators

Determine professional welding setups, preheating conditions, steel grades equivalence lookups, hardness scales, and joint geometry.

Hardness Converter

Convert between Rockwell C, Rockwell B, Brinell, and Vickers scales with approximate tensile strengths for steel materials.

Input Hardness Scale

Weld & Metallurgical Estimations
Converted Tensile Strength
3029MPa (439 ksi)
Approximate conversion based on ASTM E140 standards
Rockwell C (HRC)50.0
Rockwell B (HRB)Out of Range (>100 HRB)
Brinell (HBW)913
Vickers (HV)961
Scale Limits & Constraints

Rockwell C is strictly designed for hardened metals (above 20 HRC), while Rockwell B is optimized for soft metals and structural steel plates. Conversions are non-linear approximations.

Disclaimer: Welding specifications and estimations are calculated using AWS code standards, ASTM E140 models, and classical mechanics formulas. Always consult specific localized engineering design codes for high-pressure safety-critical builds.
