Shore hardness tester HA (0–100 HA) — analogue Shore A, flat cone tip Ø0.79 mm (Metav IndustryLine)

The Shore hardness tester HA (0–100 HA) is an analogue durometer designed for rapid Shore A hardness checks on elastomers and soft plastics in production and quality control.

• Analogue readout, 1 HA resolution
• Range 0–100 HA for Shore A testing
• Flat cone tip Ø0.79 mm, 35° geometry
• Drag pointer for peak value capture

Consistent, measurable Shore A results for quality control

The instrument offers a clear analogue scale with 1 HA graduation, implemented for straightforward pass/fail decisions and trend tracking. The combination of a wide 0–100 HA measuring range and a compact Ø0.79 mm flat cone tip yields representative surface contact on soft materials, ensuring reproducible readings across batches. The mechanical peak capture via the drag pointer prevents missed maximum values during quick spot checks, which supports continuous production sampling without the need for electronic systems.

Tip geometry and force range tuned for elastomers

The geometry and force range are engineered to match the Shore A procedure: the flat cone tip, 35°, combined with a measurement force of 0.55–8.05 N, gives contact characteristics equivalent to standardised Shore A tests. This technical pairing reduces measurement scatter on compliant surfaces such as rubber, elastomers, silicone and vinyl, producing data that can be used for material acceptance or process control. The mechanical design avoids dependence on batteries, ensuring consistent force application within the instrument’s designed limits.

Robust handling and material compatibility for workshop use

At approximately 0.3 kg, the tester is lightweight and easy to manoeuvre for inline inspections, handheld sampling and laboratory benches. The analogue construction is inherently durable for workshop environments and requires minimal maintenance. Compatibility with a range of substrates — from leather and felt to softer plastics — makes the instrument suitable for component testing, incoming goods control and R&D hardness screening. The simple, mechanical operation facilitates rapid familiarisation for technicians and production staff.

FAQ

What materials can be tested with this Shore A instrument?
The Shore hardness tester HA is suitable for rubber, elastomers, neoprene, silicone, vinyl, soft plastics, felt and leather; material compatibility is listed in the specifications.

How is the peak hardness recorded during a test?
A mechanical drag pointer records the maximum reading at the point of contact, allowing the operator to read the peak value on the analogue scale after withdrawal.

Is the measuring force suitable for standard Shore A procedures?
Yes — the device applies a measurement force of 0.55–8.05 N, matched to the Shore A method and the Ø0.79 mm flat cone tip for representative contact.

Does the tester require batteries or electronic calibration?
The unit is an analogue instrument and functions without batteries; calibration and verification follow standard metrology practice as required by the user’s quality system.

Which SKU identifies this model for ordering and spare parts?
Ordering and reference can be made using SKU M208.354 for the Metav IndustryLine Shore hardness tester.
