Heavy-Duty Hardness Testing for Large Structures and Components

Brinell Hardness Testing (BHN) is ideal for determining the hardness of large components, thick sections, and heavy steel structures. This method uses a hardened steel or tungsten carbide ball indenter under a heavy load to assess surface resistance. It is especially effective for forgings, castings, weldments, and pressure boundary materials where material strength and integrity are critical.

Qualitest Offshore’s mobile teams utilize portable Brinell hardness testing equipment for fast, on-site evaluations with minimal disruption.

Applications of Brinell Hardness Testing

Our Brinell testing services are widely used on:

• Structural steel in offshore rigs and FPSOs
• Welds and heat-affected zones on thick-walled components
• Castings and large forgings in pressure vessels and industrial plants
• Boiler shells, exchanger heads, and pipeline fittings
• Heavy fabrication and mechanical assemblies

This method is especially valuable for qualifying materials, confirming heat treatments, and verifying compliance during new construction or equipment refurbishment.

Why Brinell Testing Matters

Brinell hardness testing provides a reliable measure of material strength and is often used in correlation with mechanical properties such as yield strength, toughness, and wear resistance. It helps ensure:

• Welds and base materials are suitable for operational loads
• Equipment maintains integrity under harsh service conditions
• Compliance with ASME, ASTM E10, and ISO 6506 standards
• Consistency across fabrication, repair, or replacement work
