In the coating industry, Durometers are used to determine if the coating is fully cured.
Provides a digital readout of Shore A or D hardness (Depending on the probe being used) from 1 to 100
There are several types of durometers. Different durometers have different shaped tips and different springs determined by ASTM. Because of this, you generally cannot equate values derived from different types of durometers. You also need to make sure you have enough coting that the instrument is measuring the hardness of the coating and not the hardness of the metal.
Durometers are not made to measure metal hardness.
While generally simple to operate, make sure you follow the appropriate standards.
