Durometer & Tread Depth Gauge Set

The INTERCOMP Durometer & Tread Depth Gauge Set (model 360110) is a precision dual-function measuring instrument designed for automotive technicians, fleet maintenance personnel, and equipment inspectors who need to assess tire condition and material hardness in the field. This compact mechanical gauge kit combines durometer measurement (0–100 points on the Shore hardness scale) with tread depth measurement (0 to 1/2 inch) in a single, portable package, eliminating the need to carry separate instruments.

The gauge set employs analog, mechanical operation—no batteries, no digital displays, no calibration drift. The 0–100 point durometer scale measures material hardness by resistance to indentation, critical for evaluating rubber compound degradation, elastomer condition, and material quality across industrial and automotive applications. The integrated tread depth gauge reads in 1/32-inch increments up to 1/2 inch, the industry standard for tire wear assessment and legal tread minimum compliance (typically 2/32 inch). Both instruments are housed in a durable protective case, ensuring portability and durability on job sites and in mobile service vehicles.

This tool set serves tire shops, fleet maintenance departments, heavy equipment operators, and quality-control inspectors who must document tire wear patterns and rubber compound integrity without electronic dependency. Tread depth measurement is essential for safety compliance and warranty assessment; durometer readings inform decisions about tire remanufacturing, rubber component replacement, and material sourcing. The analog design ensures reliable operation in harsh environments—moisture, extreme temperatures, dust, and vibration do not compromise measurement accuracy.

Weighing 1.21 lbs and dimensioned at 5.5 x 3 x 8 inches, the kit fits easily into tool bags, service trucks, and diagnostic kits. Professionals who work in fleet management, tire inspection, heavy transportation, and manufacturing quality assurance rely on this type of instrument for rapid, repeatable readings that inform maintenance decisions and safety documentation.
