Pointer Shore hardness testers are widely used in hardness testing of vulcanized rubber and plastic products. It has the characteristics of simple structure, convenient use, small size, light weight and intuitive readings. It can be used for hand-held measurement. It can also be installed on the same type of Shore Durometer test stand of the same production for constant load test. Comply with standards DIN53505, ASTM D2240 ISO / R868, JIS R7215.
Pointer Shore hardness tester has three types: A type, C type and D type.
Type A is generally suitable for testing the hardness of low-medium hardness materials such as rubber, synthetic rubber, polybasic grease, felt, leather, wax, etc.
Type C is suitable for the hardness testing of micro-porous materials for shoes similar to those made of rubber and plastics containing foaming agents with a compression rate of 50% and a stress of 0.049 MPa or more.
Main parameters
Dial value: 0-100 degrees
Needle stroke: 0-2.5mm
End pressure of pressing needle: A type, C type 0.55N-8.05N
D type 0-44.5N
How to use
Place the sample on a solid surface, hold the hardness tester and the panel of the hardness tester is at an angle with the operator, and press the needle at least 12mm away from the surface of the test sample. Press the hardness tester into the sample steadily until the presser foot and the sample are completely in contact, and the presser foot is completely in contact with the test sample within 1S. Each sample shall be tested no less than 5 times, and the distance between each test point shall be at least 6mm.
