Digital Durometer Hardness Testers
Measure the hardness of flat materials with a digital display. For more information about durometer scales, please see the bottom of About Rubber.
These testers come with a calibration certificate traceable to NIST that states they’ve passed a test for accuracy. A maximum-reading indicator holds the highest reading until reset. Use the USB/RS-232 port for direct connection to your PC.
Testers for Shore M durometers take accurate readings on materials as thin as 0.05". Use them to take measurements of areas that are too small for durometer readings with a Shore A scale tester.
Mount the tester to an operating stand (sold separately) to ensure it is perfectly parallel to the sample. This reduces error and gives accurate, repeatable readings.

Durometer Hardness Test Block Sets
Confirm your durometer hardness tester is taking accurate readings. Use your tester on these blocks to make sure the durometer readings match the block. The blocks come with a calibration certificate traceable to NIST to ensure their accuracy.

O-Ring Durometer Hardness Testers
Test the hardness of thin and irregularly shaped plastic, rubber, and laminate parts, such as O-rings. These testers can be used on products where the surface area is too small for accurate durometer readings with a standard Shore A tester, such as the rounded surface of O-rings. They include O-ring fixtures that hold five standard-sized O-rings in place during testing. These testers are also capable of measuring materials as thin as 0.05″, about the thickness of a credit card. On the display, they’ll show the highest reading until they’re reset. They include a calibration certificate traceable to NIST that states they’ve passed a test for accuracy.
Use the included test blocks to practice taking accurate measurements at the right pressure against your workpiece. Send your measurement data directly to your PC using the USB port.
