What is the difference between an Epoxy and a Urethane when choosing a formulation for your requirements?
Shore hardness is the measured hardness of a cured material. Softer products are on the shore A scale, whereas harder materials are on the shore D and Rockwell scales. Most epoxies and polyurethanes fall into the shore A or shore D range with some in the very low end of the Rockwell scale. Some applications, such as rollers, require precise control of the cured hardness.
Indoor rock climbing was once a marginal activity for a few enthusiasts. But now general interest is going up as people discover the health benefits and heady thrills of scaling indoor walls like Spider-Man.
