The 7000A and 7000D durometer operating
stands were engineered to fit all PTC® durometer styles.
The Classic Style and the Ergo Style mount right
on the stand. For the e2000™ and Pencil Style
Durometers, a small mounting knob is included.
Mechanical operating stands that deliver
a load sufficient to overcome the spring force
of the durometer smoothly and without shock in
approximately 1 second from contact. Most other
mechanical stands apply an increasing load over
time which gives inconsistent and inaccurate
readings. Since rubber, plastic and elastomeric materials creep over
time, it is essential that the load be applied promptly.
These precisely engineered durometer stands have hydraulic dampers controlling the rate of descent
smoothly, without jump or stutter. They are activated with simple, smooth lever controls. Designed for serious testing, eliminating
operator variability and increased accuracy and
repeatability. Whether in the lab or in a production
environment you will get accurate and repeatable
readings you can trust.
The stands will accept sample materials up to
3" (76mm) thick depending on the height of the
durometer used. |
