Digital Shore Hardness Tester M208.352.N — 0–100 A0 range, digital display

A compact digital Shore hardness tester Digital Shore Hardness Tester M208.352.N designed for rapid A0 hardness checks on soft materials such as foam and sponge.

• 0–100 A0 measuring range, 0.5 unit resolution
• Ball indenter R=2.5 mm with 30 mm anvil
• Digital display with ON/OFF, ZERO and HOLD

Fast, reliable Shore A0 readings for soft materials

The instrument provides a 0–100 A0 measuring range with a readable resolution of 0.5 units, allowing clear differentiation of softer polymer foams and cellular materials. The Shore A0 scale is tailored to very soft elastomers and foam products; by measuring indentation depth with a standardised indenter geometry, the device converts mechanical response into a direct hardness value, simplifying in-line checks and incoming goods inspections. The concise, numerical readout accelerates decision-making and reduces interpretation errors compared with analogue scales.

Ergonomic design and straightforward operation for routine testing

An ergonomically balanced housing and low weight (approx. 0.1 kg) make the instrument suited to handheld use and quick transfer between test points. The digital display includes ON/OFF, ZERO and HOLD functions for stable readings and repeatable workflows, while the ball indenter (R=2.5 mm) and anvil/stop (30 mm) ensure defined contact geometry and positioning. These design choices reduce operator influence and permit fast serial testing, helping to keep throughput steady during production checks or laboratory routines.

Robust application range and practical transport solution

Calibrated for Shore A0 testing with a 30° taper tip and 0.1 mm tip radius, the device is optimised for foams and sponges but also useful for other very soft materials where A0 measurements are the standard. The compact format and protective transport case allow safe storage and straightforward mobile use across workshops or inspection rooms, preserving measurement integrity during handling and transit. The combination of a standardised indenter and electronic readout supports consistent results across shifts and operators.
