Méthode Vickers. La mesure de la dureté par la méthode Wickers présente une certaine analogie avec la méthode Brinell. L'essai consiste à essayer, sous charge constante [...](exprimée en kilo), une pyramide de diamant à base carrée dont l'angle au sommet a une valeur de 136 ° [...] On mesure la diagonale [...] de l'empreinte laissée par la pyramide après suppression de la charge. 2, record 1, French, - m%C3%A9thode%20Vickers

Essais de dureté Brinell.(...) Dans l'essai proposé par Brinell, le pénétrateur est une bille polie en acier trempé ou en carbure de tungstène. Son diamètre est D(normalement 10mm, mais aussi 5mm, 2, 5mm et 1mm). Elle est appliquée sur le métal avec une charge F(normalement 3000kgf). Après suppression de la charge, elle laisse dans le métal une empreinte circulaire permanente dont on mesure le diamètre d, d’autant plus grand que la bille a pénétré plus profondément dans le métal, donc que celui-ci est moins dur [...] 1, record 5, French, - essai%20de%20duret%C3%A9%20Brinell
