Hardness Testers for testing hardness of sulfurized rubber and plastics

Shore Durometer

Shore A

  • Applicable to normal rubber, synthetic rubber, soft rubber, polyresin (resin), wax, etc.
  • For low, medium, and high hardness levels
  • Stress at the end of pointer: 0.55 N - 8.06 N
  • 0 – 100 HA
  • 0.5 HA

Shore C

  • Applies to rubber and contains the tiny hole material that the vesicant is made for being used in plastics
  • For testing the hardness of shoe-making porous materials made by vesicants within plastics when the compression rate is 50 % and stress is beyond 0.049 MPa.
  • Stress at the end of pointer: 0.55 N – 8.06 N
  • 0 – 100 HC
  • 0.5 HC

Shore D

  • Applies to general hard rubber, hard resin, acryl, glass, thermo plastics, printing plates, fibres, etc.
  • For low, medium and high level hardness of material
  • Stress at the end of pointer: 0 – 44.5 N
  • 0 – 100 HD
  • 0.5 HD
