Jonathan MacKerron Dec 18, 2008:
you should translate any and all words/abbreviations that an English speaker would not readily understand, at least that's my approach...

that seems to be Roy's question ;-) probably Rockwell Hardness (Scale C), i.e. Material der Rockwell-Härte HRC 60 + 2 oder so, bin aber keine Fachfrau, daher keine Ahnung, wie man das korrekt i. D. ausdrückt

Oops, that may have been my fault for not reading carefully. Either way, these terms seem to be the same in English and German. An English example: http://www.berger-tools.co.uk/downloads/material.pdf
