It's small, so the size is great for my work bench area that is already brimming with tools, so the small foot print is also a plus! Review: Accurate and fast way to categorize Rockwell C hardness in 5-unit ranges - While somewhat expensive, they are much cheaper than an actual Rockwell C hardness tester, and accurate enough for most machine shop needs. They are Japanese made. Use the tip to scratch or dig in to the metal piece in question. If it scratches or just digs in then your metal piece is softer on the Rockwell C scale. Move to the next lower probe until it does not scratch or dig in on your metal piece in question. You have now bracketed the hardness to within a 5 unit range on the Rockwell C scale. The whole process takes about 5 seconds per test range. Highly recommended for when tempering steel to a desired hardness, or when trying to identify the type and hardness of unlabeled scrap pieces. ## Features - Compact & convenient - Non-slip grip. - Color coded.Non-slip grip. - Brand: Travers Tool Co., Inc.

Also is this good for crystal/rock hardness?** A: I can't answer about the pdf but the files are calibrated for Rockwell hardness for metals, not Mohs scale for rock. **Q: is the writing on the tool itself english or japanese?** A: Our tool is in Japanese. But we can send you a simple English document on how to use this tool in PDF. **Q: Are these files good for measuring the hardness of soft steel such as hot or cold rolled or only good for tool hardened steel?** A: The files only go down to 40 Rockwell C, so they won’t give you any information on mild steel. They can tell you if a hardenable steel arrives with any prehardening, meaning you have to temper it before machining. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HRC Tester for those serious about HRC hardness *by A***R on October 19, 2025* If you have a printer, tape and know how the search engine works, then you know what to do! :) It's functional, that in and of itself adds value for the money.

Using these hardness files to test hardness of annealed and heat-treated tool steels in my shop. Measures Rockwell C-scale hardness within a few points, not a precise testing tool but is not intended or advertised to test more precisely than plus or minus a few points of hardness. Certainly adequate for my purposes in tool making and woodworking. ## Frequently Bought Together - TTC 6 Piece Hardness Tester File Set - Mr Volcano Parks 50 Quench Oil for Heat Treating Steel and Knife Steel - 1 Gallon - 5 Pack 1095 Steel for Knife Making - 12"x1.5"x0.12" Annealed High Carbon Tool Steel Blanks, Precision Ground Flat Stock Bar for Knife Blades & DIY Projects --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/28338205-ttc-6-piece-hardness-tester-file-set](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/28338205-ttc-6-piece-hardness-tester-file-set) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
