[DUROMETER] SUPER-EX Series
[DUROMETER] HARDNESS TESTER FOR RUBBER AND PLASTICS
One of the most important steps in using a durometer (rubber hardness tester) is to select the optimum type.
There are various types of durometer available based on different standards applied to a wide variety of subjects to be measured.
Among them the most popular models for rubber materials are ISO 7619 & ASTM D 2240-specified Type A Durometer (ASKER Model A) and JIS K 6301 (abolished)-specified Type A Durometer (ASKER Model JA).
Other typical models include ISO 7619 & ASTM D 2240-specified Type D Durometer (ASKER Model D) for hard rubber and plastics, and ASKER-C (ASKER Model C) for soft rubber or flexible cellular materials.		 [phot] Model A
