The SHD uses interchangeable probes (A or D) to target soft or harder materials. It supports standardised test durations with on-screen countdown, and has Auto-Ignore mode to omit readings outside the valid range (below 20 or above 90) as per ASTM/ISO standards. Data logging, HiLo alarms, statistics mode (min, max, average, standard deviation) and calibration with traceable test block are included.

DeFelsko PosiTector SHD Shore Hardness Durometer

Need fast, reliable hardness readings without worry about weather or environment? The PosiTector SHD delivers exactly that. Just select your scale (A or D), press firmly, hold through the on-screen timer, and you get cleaned-up digital value. It ignores out-of-range errors, stores batches, lets you connect wireless or via USB, and fits in your belt. Tough, smart, and built for use wherever you are.

Features

01
Dual Probes: Shore A & Shore D

Two probe types to handle soft elastomers/rubbers (A) or harder plastics/epoxies (D), each with different indentor tip/spring.

02
User-Adjustable Timer + On-Screen Countdown

Ensures conformity to test standards by timing each measurement (e.g. 3 seconds or as required).

03
Auto-Ignore Mode

Automatically ignores readings outside the valid hardness range (below 20 or above 90) per international standards so data remains valid.

04
Sturdy, Field-Ready Design

IP65 rating (weather/dust/water resistant), hardened indentor, protective holster; small and light enough for field use.

05
Connectivity & Data-Handling

USB, WiFi, Bluetooth for data export; internal memory; statistics mode; test block included; calibration certificate traceable to NIST.
