6in Unbonded Capping Neoprene Pad Cap, 50 Durometer

6in Unbonded Capping Neoprene Pad Cap, 50 Durometer

Neoprene Capping Pads for Concrete Cylinder Testing – 6in, 50 Durometer

These high-quality Neoprene Capping Pads are specifically designed for testing the compressive strength of 6x12in (152.4x304.8mm) concrete cylinders. Each pad measures 6in (152.4mm) in diameter and 0.5in (12.7mm) thick, engineered to flow under compression to fill any surface irregularities in the cylinder ends. This ensures even load distribution during testing, delivering accurate and reliable results. The pads meet ASTM C1231/1231M and AASHTO T 22 standards, making them fully compliant for use in professional and industrial settings.

Key Features:

• Material Durability: Made from high-performance neoprene, these pads can be reused up to 100 times, offering exceptional value and long-term reliability.
• Durometer Ratings & Uses:
  • 50 Durometer: Designed for concrete strengths between 1,500-6,000psi (10-40MPa), ideal for standard testing applications.
  • 60 Durometer: Suitable for concrete strengths between 2,500-7,000psi (17-48MPa).
  • 70 Durometer: Perfect for high-strength concrete testing, handling strengths between 4,000-12,000psi (27-83MPa).
• Flexible Packaging Options: Pads are sold individually or in packages of 12 for added convenience, making it easy to meet your testing volume requirements.
• Steel Retainer Compatibility: The use of a 6in Steel Retainer Set is required for proper testing. Retainers hold the pads securely at both ends of the cylinder, ensuring stability during compression testing. Retainer sets are sold separately.
• Standards Compliance: Fully compliant with ASTM C1231/1231M and AASHTO T 22, ensuring accurate and standardized test methods.

Why Choose 50 Durometer Pads? The 50 durometer pads are ideal for testing concrete strengths ranging from 1,500 to 6,000psi, making them a versatile choice for standard concrete testing applications. These pads are designed to compress evenly under load, filling surface imperfections and ensuring accurate results every time.

Applications:

• Compression testing of 6x12in concrete cylinders.
• Suitable for labs, construction sites, and quality control testing environments.
• Compatible with a wide range of materials testing machines.

Additional Information: To achieve optimal results, two neoprene pads are required for compression testing—one for each end of the cylinder. Combine with the Steel Retainer Set for proper pad alignment and stability during testing. The pads are available in multiple durometer options to match the design strength of the concrete being tested.

Compliance with Test Methods:

• AASHTO T 22: Compressive Strength of Cylindrical Concrete Specimens.
• ASTM C1231/1231M: Standard Practice for Use of Unbonded Caps in Determination of Compressive Strength of Hardened Concrete Cylinders.

Choose the 6in Neoprene Pads for precise and efficient concrete testing. Whether you're working with standard or high-strength concrete, these pads provide the performance and reliability you need to meet your testing requirements.
