IRHD Hardness Testers
IRHD hardness testers measure the hardness of cured rubber to ISO 48 using a precision indenter and dead-load system, with micro, normal and low-hardness variants for different sample sizes and ranges. They are the instrument of choice for thin sections, curved surfaces and small parts such as seals and O-rings.
Read how the method works in IRHD Measurement Principles, or match a tester to your samples with the Select an IRHD Hardness Tester guide.
