Durometer Reading

What is a Shore Durometer reading?

MDUSA Europe Econ

88

Shore Durometer is one of several measures to test the hardness of a material. Hardness may be defined as a material's resistance to permanent indentation and total failure (examples of total failure; insert coming out, rubber seperating, plates warping). We consider anything over 65 acceptable for a quality bumper plate. The overall maximum reading that can be achieved is 100. Higher reading bumper plates are likely to resist indentations and total failure than lower reading bumper plates.

We understand there are many ways to define the quality and cosistency of bumper plates. However, we feel that this type of testing is statistically valid and objective.

MDUSA Econ Europe Durometer Reading Statistics
(from a random sampling of 20 plates)
Average Durometer Reading - 88.35 (excellent)
Durometer Range - 4 (excellent)
Durometer Standard Deviation - 1.7 (excellent)

High durometer readings indicates a high material quality. Low numbers for the durometers range and standard deviation indicates consistent manufacturing.
