Best Answer

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.

How hard is 28 on the hardness scale?

In the common Mohs hardness scale used in geology, 10 is the maximum number, the hardness of diamond. There are several other hardness scales such as Vickers, and Brinell; but these have specialist engineering (not geologic) applications. In brief, Brinell 28 would be rather soft - about that of copper. In Vickers, this number would represent something even softer - around that of gold.
