5.98in Diameter Porous Stone, 0.50in Thick

5.98in Diameter Porous Stone, 0.50in Thick

This Porous Stone has a diameter of 5.98in (151.9mm) and a thickness of 0.50in (12.7mm), made from high-quality aluminum oxide. Designed for geotechnical testing, the rigid disc supports both ends of cylindrical soil samples while allowing two-way fluid flow.

We provide a full range of Porous Stones tailored for various laboratory applications, including triaxial shear, permeability, direct shear, and consolidation testing.

Porous Stones facilitate the flow of water and other permeants during testing while preventing fine particles from entering the system. With a permeability range of 15–18ft³ (424–510L) of air per square foot and an average pore size of 179μm, these stones are reliable and efficient. All Porous Stones are in stock and ready to ship.
