4x8in Cylinder Test Set with Unbonded Caps for AC-450 / AC-650

4x8in Cylinder Test Set with Unbonded Caps for AC-450 / AC-650

4x8in Cylinder Test Sets are designed to adapt Concrete Compression Machines for precise compressive strength testing of cylindrical specimens made from concrete or similar materials. These test sets ensure proper support, alignment, and positioning of samples, enabling accurate testing in compliance with ASTM and AASHTO standards. They are essential for labs and engineers working on quality control, material testing, or research and development projects.

The sets are available in different configurations to accommodate various capping methods. Models are designed to test specimens using capping compound or ground ends (bonded caps) as well as those with neoprene pad caps and retainers (unbonded caps). This versatility allows operators to select the ideal setup based on the specific requirements of their testing process.

The 4x8in Cylinder Test Sets are compatible with a range of compression machines, including the AC-450 and AC-650 Automatic Compression Machines, AC-300, AC-400, and AC-500 Rigid Frame Compression Machines, as well as the BC-450 Basic Compression Machine.

Key Features:

• Enables testing of 4x8in cylindrical specimens with precision.
• Supports testing methods with bonded and unbonded caps.
• Complies with AASHTO T 22 and ASTM C39/39M standards.
• Ideal for laboratories, construction projects, and research facilities.
• Compatible with a wide range of concrete compression machines.

The robust design and adherence to industry standards ensure reliable and repeatable test results, making these test sets a critical tool for concrete strength evaluation.
