TROWEL is a small hand tool used for digging, applying,

smoothing, or moving small amounts of viscous or


particulate material.

UNIVERSAL TESTING MACHINE, also known as a


universal tester, materials testing machine or materials test
frame, is used to test the tensile strength and compressive
strength of materials.

MARSHALL STABILITY TESTER measures the


maximum load sustained by the bituminous material at a
loading rate of 50.8 mm/minute. The test load is
increased until it reaches a maximum.

GILLMORE APPARATUS is used to determine initial and


final set times of Portland cement, masonry cement,
hydraulic hydrated lime and certain mortars.
CYLINDRICAL MOULD, is used for
testing concrete cylinders for
compressive strength tests.
The Cylindrical Mould can be availed at
market leading prices from us.
Specifications

RECTANGULAR MOLD, used to test concrete


flexural strength. They are made from either
plastic or steel depending on preference and
standards.
DENSITY BASKET, used to determine bulk specific
gravity and absorption of coarse aggregates.

OVEN, colloquially known as a brick oven or stone


oven, is an oven consisting of a baking chamber made
of fireproof brick, concrete, stone, clay, or cob.

SHOVEL, a tool for digging, lifting, and moving bulk

blade fixed to a medium-length handle.

PAIL, a watertight, vertical cylinder or truncated cone


or square, with an open top and a flat bottom, attached
to a semicircular carrying handle called the bail.
WEIGHING SCALES are used to measure weight and/or mass
of an object, reports the United States Department of Agriculture.
Dozens of types of scales exist, but the simplest scale uses a
beam and a pivot to balance the weight of one known object with
another.

METAL CONTAINER, used in a laboratory to hold reagents or


samples.

TAMPING ROD, a round, straight steel rod used with concrete


cylinder molds, slump cones, and unit weight tests. Measures
5/8" diameter by 24" length. Both ends are rounded to a
hemispherical tip.

SIEVE, an instrument which is used for the measurement of


particle size. In its most common form it consists of a woven wire
screen, with square apertures, rigidly mounted in a shallow
cylindrical metal frame
