Ball-Pan Hardness Test Steel Ball Sets
Ensure precise and reliable material testing with our high-grade Steel Ball Sets for Ball-Pan Hardness Tests. Designed to meet stringent industry standards, these chrome alloy steel balls are essential components for accurate assessments of material properties, from granular activated carbon to asphalt binders.
Key Applications & Features:
1. For Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) Hardness Testing (ASTM D3802):
- Diameter: 1/2in (12.7mm)
- Purpose: These balls are specifically used in conjunction with an 8in W.S. Tyler Ro-Tap Sieve Shaker to determine the hardness and degradation resistance of granular activated carbon samples. This test is critical for evaluating the structural integrity and longevity of GAC, ensuring its effectiveness in filtration and purification processes.
- Material: Crafted from durable chrome alloy steel, ensuring consistent performance and resistance to wear during rigorous testing.
2. For Asphalt Binder Testing & Granular Carbon Hardness:
- Diameter: 0.375in (9.5mm)
- Purpose: These smaller steel balls are versatile, used both for general hardness testing of granular carbon and, importantly, in asphalt binder testing. When used with a Softening Point Ring and Ball Apparatus, they are crucial for determining the softening point of viscoelastic bitumens, such as asphalt or coal tar pitch. This measurement is vital for predicting the temperature susceptibility and performance characteristics of paving materials.
- Material: Also made from high-quality chrome alloy steel for reliability and precision in diverse testing environments.
Features at a Glance:
- Premium Material: All steel balls are manufactured from robust chrome alloy steel, guaranteeing durability and consistent results.
- Standardized Sizes: Available in two precise diameters: 0.5in (12.7mm) and 0.375in (9.5mm) to suit specific test methods.
- Compliance: Meets the rigorous requirements of ASTM D3802 for granular activated carbon testing, ensuring your results are recognized and reliable.
