Triaxial Cell, 1.4 to 4in Diameter Specimens (Brass Valves)

Triaxial Cell, 1.4 to 4in Diameter Specimens (Brass Valves)

Triaxial Test Cells for 1.4in to 4in Specimens

Our Triaxial Test Cells are designed for testing soil specimens with a maximum diameter of 1.4in to 4in (35.6 to 101.6mm). Built with durable brass or stainless steel valves and fittings, these test cells provide excellent performance when paired with Master or Auxiliary Control Panels, as well as other triaxial testing systems.

The cells feature a robust, machined aluminum base to handle heavy loads, while the chamber is made from heavy-wall clear acrylic for durability and visibility. A precision-ground stainless steel load piston with internally lubricated U-cup seals and nylon sleeve bearings ensures minimal friction. Equipped with zero-volume change ball valves, the cells support a maximum operating pressure of 150psi (10.3 bar).

Key Features:

• Brass or stainless steel valves and fittings for durability
• Heavy-wall clear acrylic chambers for strength and visibility
• Solid aluminum base designed to handle heavy loads
