70mm (2.76in) Fixed Ring Consolidometer

The 70mm Fixed Ring Consolidometer is designed for laboratory soil consolidation testing and is compatible with Karol-Warner and other manufacturers' Consolidation Load Frames. This consolidometer features a stainless steel base with an acrylic inundation ring for easy observation during testing. The specimen is loaded from the top while the base remains fixed, ensuring accurate results. It includes a 1in (25.4mm) high stainless steel cutting sample ring with built-in cutting edges for efficient sample preparation. Clamping rings come with lifting knobs for easy removal post-testing. Additional components, such as a loading pad, porous stones (top and bottom), and a load-bearing ball, are included and also available separately. The unit works seamlessly with most other manufacturers’ systems.
