This tyre durometer from Longacre has been made even more accurate than previous models and is able to test rubber hardness from 0-100 points (Shore A scale). A straight edge in the base allows the gauge to be 'rocked' for more consistent readings and the dial can be zeroed
- Accurately test tyre rubber hardness
- Check if older tyres are usable
- Compare different tyre compounds
Tyre hardness has a huge effect on handling, it changes as tyres get older and even varies between new tyres of the same compound. A durometer allows you to better match tyres and provides an indication of when they need to be replaced.
