201/O PENCIL DUROMETER TYPE O
575.00
Type O: For Soft rubber, elastomers, and very soft plastics
The PTC® Analog Pencil Style Durometers are manufactured to meet or exceed current ASTM D2240 specifications and designed to measure the indentation hardness of rubber, elastomers and other rubberlike substances such as neoprene, silicone, vinyl, nitrile and butyl. The 360° dial features bold, easy to read numbers indicating a specific value, with a 0.2 resolution. A standard maximum hold hand retains the peak reading until reset. The durometer's 1/2" diameter base (1.3cm) is the smallest base permitted by ASTM D2240 specifications. This allows it to be used in confined or hard to reach areas other durometers cannot test.

211/O DIGITAL PENCIL DUROMETER TYPE O
1175.00
Type O: For soft rubber, elastomers and very soft plastics
The PTC® Digital Pencil Style Durometers are manufactured to meet or exceed current ASTM D2240 specifications and designed to measure the indentation hardness of rubber, elastomers, and other rubberlike substances such as neoprene, silicone, vinyl, nitrile and butyl. The LCD digital display features bold, easy to read numbers indicating a specific value, with a 0.1 resolution. A standard electronic maximum hold button retains the peak reading until reset. The durometer's 1/2" diameter base (1.3cm) is the smallest base permitted by ASTM D2240 specifications. This allows it to be used in confined or hard to reach areas other durometers cannot test.

The Digital Durometer Software allows the users to automatically collect, record, and print test data, create statistical data including tolerance, range, mean, variance, standard deviation in graph format and several languages. The software interfaces with the Digital Durometer through the provided RS-232 cable.

410 ERGO STYLE DUROMETER TYPE O
575.00
Type O: For soft rubber, elastomers and very soft plastics
The PTC® Ergo Style Durometers are manufactured to meet or exceed current ASTM D2240 specifications and designed to measure indentation hardness of rubber, elastomers, plastics, wood, leather, foams and sponge rubber. Models 410, 411, and 413 are all similar in outward appearance, however, by using various combinations of spring forces these durometers cover a wide range of material hardness. They have a removable threaded mounting knob at the top of the instrument and the base tapers to a 1" x 1" base. (25.4mm x 25.4mm)

These Durometers come complete with Test Block and Carrying Case. The Model 410 and 413 come with magnetic max hand for indicating peak reading.

For unique or unusual materials that are not covered by other durometer types, PTC® recommends sending a full hardness range of your material for evaluation to determine the durometer type to match your material.

501/O ANALOG e2000 DUROMETER TYPE O
575.00
Type O: For soft rubber, elastomers, very soft plastics, medium density textile windings
The ultimate durometer for accurate hand held hardness measurements of soft rubber, elastomers, and very soft plastics. PTC®'s Model 501/O has a rubber grip and a 1.25" (3.2cm) diameter presser foot for increased stability and maximum repeatability. The PTC® Analog Style Durometer is built to meet or exceed current ASTM D2240 specifications for Type O durometers.

PTC®' digital durometers come complete with test block , carrying case and NIST traceable certificate from PTC Metrology™. ASTM "R" Base Size Specific Durometer Any e2000 Millennium Style Durometer can be made as an "R" designation. The "R" designation specifies a presser foot diameter of 18 ± 0.5mm (0.71 ± 0.02in) in diameter, while the spring forces and indenter configurations remain the same. Please specify the "R" Type when ordering. US Patent D436,874
