The PTC Model 307L Durometer Shore D Classic Style is the industry standard for testing Pipeline Coatings.

Most pipeline coatings are rigid and require a Shore D Durometer, such as the PTC 307L.

Durometer measurements are often specified in pipeline coating documents to ensure that the coating meets the required performance criteria for mechanical resistance, abrasion resistance, and impact resistance.

Please take a look at our Portable Steel Hardness Tester.

The Portable Steel Hardness Tester

Measures the hardness of metals in the range of 20 to 65 HRC on the equivalent Rockwell C Scale. The instrument is fully portable and easy to use. It can easily be carried anywhere an accurate hardness test is required.

PTC IVF Thermometers are designed for hospitals, IVF clinics, and embryology Labs.

Maintaining a steady temperature of 37°C in a stable environment improves outcomes for human oocyte and embryo development.

PTC® Industrial Rail Thermometers are designed to measure surface temperatures for continuously welded or jointed rails. These thermometers meet the criteria outlined in the AREMA specification for track maintenance.
