hardness as it is measured on a rockwell or brinell testing instrument
Both are two different scales of hardness measurement.
The Brinell hardness tester was invented to measure the hardness of materials using an indentation. Applied force is measured against the force, diameter of indentation and indenter.
EN31 is steel that has a hardness measurement of 63HRC. The Brinell-Rockwell hardness of the material ranges from 59 to 65.
There are some differences between hardness and hardenability. Hardness is the surface property of material to give resistance to the penetration or plastic deformation and it is measured by one of the tests......Rockwell hardness test,Brinell hardness test and Vicker hardness test. On the other hand,hardenability is defined as the ability how the material would be hardened and it is measured by Jominy hardenability test.

Hardness of ductile materials can be determined by following methods..... 1) Brinell Hardness Test 2)Vickers Hardness Test 3)Rockwell Hardness Test 4) Scratch hardness test
I don't found the Mohs hardness of technetium; probable was not measured. The Brinell hardness is 112 and the Vickers hardness is 151.
The unit of Brinell Hardness Number is same as that for stress.
In Vickers hardness test the for used is much lighter than the force used in Rockwell hardness test, The Rockwell hardness test is the considered to be the most routinely used technique to measure the hardness of materials because of its simplicity and because it does not require specific skills in order to perform it.
Determining the hardness of materials is the purpose of a Brinell scale. The Brinell scale is one of several items used in the definition of hardness in materials science.
Mohs hardness: 6 Brinell hardness: 196 MPa.
