This durometer was donated to the collection by an aircraft mechanic who worked for Spartan Air Services from 1952 to 1983. The donor found this durometer in his office upon his retirement. It was used at Spartan Air Services to measure the hardness of the full bubble canopies (ie: for Bell 47s) made by the company Ce duromètre est parvenu à la collection grâce à un mécanicien d'avion qui travaillait pour les Services de transport Aérien Spartan (Spartan Air Services) entre 1952 et 1983 respectivement. Le donateur a trouvé le duromètre dans son bureau quand il a pris sa retraite. L'objet était utilisé è la compagnie ou le donateur travaillait pour mesurer la dureté au duromètre des verrières bulles (pour les Bell 47) construit par Spartan Air Services.

Technical
The Shore Durometer was invented by an American man named Albert F. Shore. He founded the Shore Instrument & Manufacturing Company Inc. and produced the first quadrant type durometers in 1915. Shore developed the durometer scale in the 1920s. While his devices were not the first to measure hardness or to be called a durometer, today such instruments usually refer to those measuring Shore hardness. Le Duromètre Shore était conçu par l'Américain Albert F. Shore. Il était le fondateur de Shore Instrument&Manufacturing Company Inc. et a construit le premier duromètre à type quadrant en 1915. Shore a aussi développé l'échelle du duromètre dans les années 1920s. Ces dispositifs n'étaient pas les premiers utilisés pour mesurer la dureté des éléments ni appeler un duromètre. Malgré ça, aujourd'hui ces genres d'instruments normalement font référence à la dureté mesurer sous l'échelle conçue par Shore.
