This graph shows the Rockwell hardness number (HRC) at different distances from the end of a material that was end-quenched. Before quenching, the HRC was consistent around 6.6-6.8 across the material. After quenching, the HRC increased significantly near the end of the material, ranging from 16.66 at the edge to 6.67 at 60mm, demonstrating that quenching increased the hardness most at the end of the material.
