3in Unbonded Capping Neoprene Pad Cap, 60 Durometer

3in Unbonded Capping Neoprene Pad Cap, 50 Durometer

3in Neoprene Pads for Concrete Cylinder Compression Testing

Sold individually. Two pads are required per test.

3in (76.2mm) Neoprene Pads are essential for accurate compression strength testing of 3in diameter concrete cylinders. These pads are made to meet the standards of ASTM C1231 and AASHTO T22, ensuring reliable performance and uniform load distribution during testing. They are 0.5in (12.7mm) thick and are available in multiple durometer hardness levels to accommodate a wide range of concrete strengths. Each pad can be reused for up to 100 tests, providing both durability and cost efficiency.

Durometer Hardness Levels and Applications:

• 50 Durometer: Ideal for concrete with design strengths between 1,500 to 6,000 psi (10-40 MPa).
• 60 Durometer: Suitable for concrete with design strengths between 2,500 to 7,000 psi (17-50 MPa).
• 70 Durometer: Designed for higher-strength concrete, from 4,000 to 12,000 psi (28-83 MPa).

Key Features:

• Flowable design: During compression, the pads conform to irregularities in cylinder ends, ensuring uniform load distribution for accurate results.
• Reusable: Each pad can be reused up to 100 times, as per ASTM C1231 guidelines.
• Customizable options: Choose from 50, 60, or 70 durometer hardness based on your testing needs.
• Compatibility: These pads require the use of a 3in Steel Retainer Set (sold separately) to hold one pad at each end of the cylinder during testing.

Why Choose Neoprene Pads for Compression Testing?

Neoprene pads simplify the testing process by eliminating the need for end grinding or capping of concrete cylinders. They are an efficient and cost-effective solution for achieving consistent results in compressive strength tests. Their ability to flow under compression ensures precise load application across the cylinder surface, reducing variability and increasing accuracy.

Additional Information:

• Purchase 20 pads for one box for larger-scale testing needs.
• Meets the requirements of industry standards ASTM C1231 and AASHTO T22 for reliable and repeatable testing performance.

Whether you're testing concrete cylinders in the lab or on-site, these Neoprene Pads provide a reliable and efficient solution for your compressive strength testing needs. Pair them with a 3in Steel Retainer Set for optimal performance and ease of use.
