Adhesive Hardness Gauge

The adhesive durometer applies pressure to the cured adhesive via an indenter, converting the indentation depth or area into Shore hardness values, which reflect the material's resistance to deformation. It is used to detect the hardness of adhesives such as sealants and epoxy resins after curing, guiding adjustments in production processes and quality control.
Selection
When selecting, consider the curing state of the adhesive and the testing standards. Use Shore A for soft adhesives and Shore D for hard adhesives. Verify that the instrument's range matches the hardness range of the sample, confirm that the indenter size complies with the testing specifications, and ensure the measuring head makes perpendicular contact with the specimen surface.
