For hard specimens for which Type A Durometer readings indicate more than 90 points, measurements
should be undertaken using the Type D Durometer (ASKER D type). However, for soft specimens with
measurements of less than 20 points, the ASKER C type or Type E Durometer (ASKER E type) should be
used. The most important consideration in using durometers is to select the correct type for purposes of
measurement according to the specimen.
