Polytevo Series Shore Durometer
Product Detail
Polytevo Series Shore Durometer (ACS-LX-A Shore A and ACS-LX-D Shore D) are pointer-type Shore durometers with a constant-load test stand, for testing the hardness of vulcanized rubber and plastic products on a 0–100 HA or 0–100 HD dial.
The ACS-LX-A (Shore A) suits soft rubber, synthetic rubber and leather wax; the ACS-LX-D (Shore D) suits hard rubber, hard resin, acrylic, thermoplastics and fiber. The durometer head is installed on the test stand for easy and accurate measurement, and can be removed to measure at the production site.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Shore A and Shore D?
The ACS-LX-A is the Shore A durometer for softer materials such as soft rubber, synthetic rubber and leather wax (0.55–8.06 N). The ACS-LX-D is the Shore D durometer for harder materials such as hard rubber, hard resin, acrylic, thermoplastics and fiber (0–44.5 N).
What is the dial scale and measuring range?
The dial scale is 0–100 (HA or HD); the measuring range is 10–90 on the dial.
Is a test stand included?
Yes. Each configuration is the pointer durometer with its matching constant-load test stand; the durometer can also be removed for measurements on site.
Which test methods does it reference?
Designed with reference to ISO 7619 for Shore hardness testing.
What are the sizes and weights?
ACS-LX-A: 170 × 140 × 260 mm, 16 kg gross and 10 kg net. ACS-LX-D: 170 × 140 × 310 mm, 18 kg gross and 12 kg net.
