hardness of rubber under higher temp
(OP)
Hi
Is there a standardized method to measure the hardness of rubber (say in Shore A) at higher temperature?
If not, anyone try doing this before? Can share your experiences?
Cheers

I have a bench top type machine also...the Bareiss Digi Test II Digital Automated Duro-meter...
But i am worried it may damage the electronics inside.
From your experience, the hardness will drop somewhat right?
cheers

I haven't done elevated temp hardness testing in a while, but we just used to put a (gloved) hand with a hand-held durometer in the oven for the quick hardness tests.

@stancom, yes, i found the table at katsure-r.com site. Thanks for the pointer. It's good reference.
I think i will try use my bench top unit to test.
