PCE-DDD 10 HARDNESS TESTER

What is the PCE-DDD 10 Hardness Tester and why choose it

The PCE-DDD 10 hardness tester is a digital Shore D durometer designed for testing the hardness of thermoplastics. It can be used as a handheld device for in situ measurements or as a laboratory instrument for material testing. The instrument combines a measurement component with an integrated sensor and a digital display, offering a reading resolution of 0.1 hardness units. Thanks to its PC interface, series measurements can be quickly transferred, documented and evaluated on a computer.

This Shore D hardness tester complies with current standards for hardness testing and is suitable for both single measurements and extensive test series. Its compact dimensions, rechargeable battery and supplied carrying case make it practical for everyday use in quality control and research environments.
