The E2 basic durometers provide quick hardness values on different materials depending on the selected scale. This hardness tester is available with Shore A, D, E scale as well as with Asker C scale.
The Shore scales conform to ASTM D-2240 and the Asker C scale to JIS K-7312.
A solid magnesium alloy housing protects the inside and provides a good usability. A peak indicator is optionally available for all models.
