New to these terms?What the numbers mean
- Shore A
- How hard the rubber is. 25 is soft like a rubber band, 40 like a pencil eraser, 70 like a car tyre, 80 firm like a shoe heel.
- Tensile
- How hard you can pull before it breaks. Higher is stronger.
- Elongation
- How far it stretches before breaking, as a %. 400 % means four times its own length.
- Tear
- How well it stops a small cut from spreading.
- V-0
- UL 94 V-0: if it catches fire, the flame stops within 10 seconds, with no burning drips.
- Specific gravity
- How heavy it is compared with water. 1.2 means 20 % heavier than the same volume of water.
- Dielectric
- How much voltage it can block before electricity punches through.
Try it
Two quick, hands-on ways to understand this product before you ask.
How firm is 65–70 Shore A?
Drag the press down onto a block, then let go. It gives way and springs back as the real rubber would: about as firm as a car tyre.
Will it take your temperature?
Drag the marker to the hottest (or coldest) your part sees.
