Durometer Of Skateboard/Longboard Wheels

Discover how skateboard wheels get their durometer values using testing devices. Testing for “shore” or durometer is a way of measuring the hardness of a material. However, the word “durometer” refers to both the hardness of a material and also to the testing device used to measure it. By hardness, we mean how well a material withstands indentation or changes in shape when a force is applied.
