Shore Hardness Scale Examples

Shore hardness is the measured hardness of a cured material. Softer products are on the shore A scale, whereas harder materials are on the shore D and Rockwell scales. Most epoxies and polyurethanes fall into the shore A or shore D range with some in the very low end of the Rockwell scale. Some applications, such as rollers, require precise control of the cured hardness.
