Stellite is a hard alloy made primarily of cobalt, chromium, and tungsten, known for its exceptional hardness and wear resistance. Its hardness can be comparable to that of hardened steel, typically ranging around 45-55 HRC (Rockwell Hardness Scale), depending on the specific formulation. This makes it ideal for applications in demanding environments, such as cutting tools and wear-resistant coatings. Overall, Stellite's hardness contributes to its durability and effectiveness in various industrial applications.
The initial load in Rockwell hardness test is 10KGf.

Rockwell hardness
The Rockwell C Hardness for a grade 10.9 fastener is 32 - 39HRC or 320 - 380Hv10
Both are two different scales of hardness measurement.
plan a fair test with timing......... bash each rock with a hammer and see which one breaks first

No, because hardness is not a fundamental quality
