Description

The Shore D Hardness Test is a simple, rapid, and reliable method for measuring the hardness of hard plastics, rigid polymers, composites, and hard rubber. A spring-loaded sharp conical indenter measures the material's resistance to indentation, and the hardness is reported on a 0–100 Shore D scale. It is widely used in plastics manufacturing, quality control, automotive, electrical, and composite industries.
