Designed to test the hardness of Rubbers and Plastics, these sleek hand held hardness testers are crafted and engineered to perform at the highest level of accuracy. An ergonomic lightweight design assists in taking precise and consistent hardness measurements.
Shore D scale is for testing the following materials:
Rubber: Hard
Plastics: Harder grades such as rigid thermoplastics, plexiglass, thermoploystrene, vinyl, sheet, cellulode acetate, thermosetting
Laminates (ie formica)
Other: Paper filled calendar rolls, calendar bowls, etc. (materials that would not normally indent under fingernail pressure, such as a pocket comb or bowling ball).
The PHT-980 is not designed to ASTM specifications and cannot be certified as such.
