The capacity of resisting a hard object pressed into its surface is called as hardness in physics. And tungsten copper rod hardness is the basic indicator to evaluate the materials if soft or hard.

Tungsten copper rod hardness can be divided into scratch hardness, indentation hardness and rebound hardness. Scratch hardness: Mainly used to compare the hardness of minerals, the method is selected from the soft end of a hard rod end, it will be measured along the rod across the material, soft and hard material being tested is determined according to the position of scratches (the hard draws a long scratch and the soft draws a short scratch);
