Comparison Plates Set Shore D (M208.362) — Three reference plates 33 / 49 / 92 HD, tolerance ±2 HD

The Comparison Plates Set Shore D provides three solid reference surfaces for the verification of Shore D hardness testers in quality control, inspection and workshop environments.

• Three reference hardness levels 33 / 49 / 92 HD
• Tolerance up to ±2 HD
• Compact, lightweight set (0.1 kg)
• Delivered in protective transport case

Dependable reference values that speed up routine checks

The three-plate set offers clear reference points at 33, 49 and 92 HD, enabling quick comparative checks that identify instrument drift before it affects production. The stated tolerance of ±2 HD describes the maximum deviation from the nominal hardness value and is suitable for regular acceptance testing and process control where repeatable comparative measurements are required. With a compact footprint of 50 x 50 x 8 mm per plate and an overall weight of 0.1 kg, the gauges are easy to handle and integrate into existing inspection routines, helping to maintain measurement consistency with minimal interruption.

Compact format and protective transport for everyday workshop use

Presented as a three-piece set, the plates are designed for practical use on the shop floor and in laboratory benches where space and portability matter. The compact dimensions and low mass make the set straightforward to store and position during comparative measurements, while the included protective transport case safeguards the surfaces from contamination and impact during transit. This arrangement reduces preparation time for routine checks and supports faster decision-making in production monitoring, contributing to improved throughput and fewer unnecessary rejects.

Practical guidance on use and suitability for Shore D testers

The plates are intended as comparison standards for Shore D measurements and are compatible with most Shore D hardness testers used in plastics and elastomer testing. They assist in assessing instrument performance and operator consistency rather than replacing full laboratory calibration. For best results, surfaces should be kept clean and handled with care to avoid scratches or contamination that could influence comparative readings. Classified as inspection gauges, the set is a pragmatic tool for quality assurance teams seeking straightforward verification options within standard production tolerances.
