Shore Line: discover the different solutions

The versatility of our Shore instruments

A solution designed to meet specific needs: our portable Shore hardness testers are suitable for measuring all polymers, elastomers, rubbers and gel-like materials (such as plastics, rubber, medical items, papers and sponges).

Thanks to special applications, they can also measure extremely small samples, hollow samples or samples with curved surfaces, such as O-rings, tyres, rubber coated rollers, etc.

All our products are suitable for every Shore hardness scale: A, AM, B, C, D, DO, E, AO, O, OO, OOO e OOO-S in accordance with the ISO 48-4 and ASTM D2240, ISO 868 and ISO 21509 international reference standards.

We are the only company in the Italian market that produces personally the entire range of Shore hardness tests in all Shore scales according to ISO 48-4, ASTM D2240, ISO 868 and ISO 21509

  • Mechanical operation
  • 0.5 Shore points analogue resolution
  • Reproducibility, repeatability and economy

  • Digital operation with wireless data connectivity and true 0.1 shore resolution
  • Advanced statistic exports
  • Management using the AXIOSTAT app

Analogue Shore Hardness Tester

The analogue Shore hardness tester features mechanical operation: within a few seconds, the tungsten carbide indenter detects the hardness value, which can be read on the high visibility analogue gauge with a resolution of 0.5 Shore points.

Suitable for all polymers, elastomers, rubbers and gel-like materials (such as plastics, rubber, medical items, paper and sponges), even with complex geometries.

Suitable for A, B, C, D, DO, E, AO, O, OO, OOO e OOO-S Shore hardness scales

When to choose the analogue version?

  • If you want to carry out immediate on-site Shore hardness tests without having to rely on electrical sources
  • If you are not interested in exporting, storing or printing data for statistical analysis.
  • If you are looking for a robust and handy instrument that can be used even in extreme conditions. Are you not convinced? Watch the video: we "tested" it at the highest hut in Europe.

Are you looking for more repetability for your Shore hardness tester?

Use your portable hardness tester, either analogue or electronic, with one of our bench top stands. You will enjoy maximum repeatability and accuracy in your Shore hardness tests.

CX digital hardness tester

The CX Shore hardness tester has been designed to outperform the traditional Shore portable hardness testers available on the market by taking advantage of specific technology and ensuring data connectivity perfected to the smallest detail.

Ideal for measuring polymers, elastomers, rubbers and gel-like materials (such as plastics, rubber, medical items, papers and sponges) with minimum thickness starting from 6 mm, in full compliance with the ISO 48-4, ASTM D2240, ISO 868 and ISO 21509 reference standards.

Possible Shore hardness scales A, AM, AO, B, C, D, DO, O, E, M, O, OO, OOO and OOO-S

When to choose the digital CX version?

  • To manage the whole test cycle wherever you want: thanks to the AXIOSTAT app - which can be installed on a PC, tablet or smartphone -, configuring limits, tolerances and standard deviations has never been easier.
  • To create and store customisable statistical value calculations for export and printing
  • To run the Shore hardness test cycle in 3 different measurement modes - peak, continuous and with timer -, which can be controlled on the large 60X45mm touch display
