Measure the hardness of flat materials, such as plastic, rubber, and laminate. For more information about durometer scales, please see the bottom of About Rubber.
Style 1 testers can be held in your hand or mounted to a stand with the included knob.
Style 2 testers have a narrow base for access to confined areas. They can be held in your hand or mounted to a stand with the included knob.
Style 3 testers come with a calibration certificate traceable to NIST that states they've passed a test for accuracy.
Testers with maximum-reading indicator hold the highest reading until reset.
