I am a materials scientest who specializes in adhesives and elastomers, and needed to replace my old dial shore-A tester. I could not believe how inexpensive this Uharbour gage was, especially considering that it comes with its own box. I checked it against my hardness standards and they were within 0.2 hardness of the standard, which was actually better than my $500 gage. The gage is easy to read and zero and I love it!

I need one of these every once and a while for injury investigations and it's nice to have in my kit. The unit is small and doesn't take up much space. The controls are intuitive and it seems to work just fine for measuring hardness. Nice unit.

I used this to check the hardness on potting. This product was worth the price point and worked well. The product was +- 1 perfect accurate.

I've had a Shore A meter for a long while and just recently found myself testing harder materials regularly .I checked this against the meter I had borrowed from a friend and they appear to agree with each other .So ,either they are both wrong or this one works as it should , haha .

It seems to work, can't verify the accuracy. Includes extra battery.

Not good for rubber. Has a ball on end. Don’t know what you could measure with it. Returned.

Uharbour Hardness Tester, Durometer Shore Type D 0-100HD, Digital Durometer 0.1HD Resolution, with Large LCD Display for Rubber, Plastic, Tire, Flooringi dont think this is meant for a novice. the instructions are terrible. "the instrument has three forms: type a, type d and type c." i spent 20 minutes trying to figure out how to switch between the types. it doesnt do that. apparently this is meant to tell you there are 3 independent, separate meters that each do one thing. not one thing that does three types. i got this to test plastic and rubber. the sample i received is a "type d." according to the manual: "type d is suitable for testing the hardness of high hardness materials, such as hard rubber, hard resin, acrylic, glass, thermoplastic, printing plate, fiber etc." ok. now i know. so thats on me. but in practice it is a terribly ackward device unless you have a stand or are able to press in air. there is a pin on the bottom this gets pressed into sample. the manual bungles this, by having 2 different names for the base of the tool. by calling it 'stand' in the diagram and 'pressure foot' in the wording. anyway, i assume it works like this you press the pin into the sample until the base is flat onto the sample. then the reading flashes on the screen, but if you are working on a desk you cannot see the screen. there is a hold button, but you cant press the hold button to get into hold mode, then press and expect the reading to 'hold' you have to press the hold button as the reading is taken. this is terrible. i have all sorts of meters and the hold button generally is a mode, and in this mode it records and holds the max level measured. whether electrical, audio, wind, whatever. this meter makes you have to ackwardly press the hold button to keep that reading on the screen. this is just not good. maybe this is normal for this type of device, but as a novice i found this terrible in practice. in terms of accuracy i cannot help you there. i have no idea whether this is reading right or not, and i cannot tell you if the readings i got were or were not the result of operator error or pressing the hold button and jiggling the device and ruining the reading. it looks cool. it comes iwth an extra battery. and has a nice little case. but the instructions are bad, and the hold function is poorly implemented.
