DeFelsko PosiTector SHD Shore Hardness Durometers
| Shore A  | Shore D  |
Overview
The PosiTector SHD Shore Hardness Durometer measures the indentation hardness of non-metallic materials such as polymers, elastomers and rubbers. In the corrosion industry, durometers are commonly used to ensure proper curing of thick coatings and pipeline repair wraps.
The 2 PosiTector SHD models look and operate identically and vary only in the spring pressure and shape of the indenter tip. This allows the 2 models to accurately measure different hardness ranges:
| | - Shore A (SHDA) - for soft to hard materials such as soft rubber, elastomers, neoprene, silicone, etc...
- Shore D (SHDD) - for medium to extra hard materials such as hard rubber, epoxies, hard plastics, PVC, acrylic, etc...
