Grout Flow Cone Complete Set with 1/2in Orifice, Polyethylene

Grout Flow Cone Complete Set with 1/2in Orifice, Polyethylene

The Grout Flow Cone Complete Set offers a simple and economical solution for measuring the flowability of fluid hydraulic grouts on-site, specifically those used in preplaced aggregate concrete applications. This method is recommended for grouts with an efflux time of 35 seconds or less.

Constructed from durable, unbreakable polyethylene, the cone is lightweight, easy to clean, and built for rigorous field use. It features a precision-machined 1/2-inch stainless steel orifice designed for consistent and repeatable results. The included stand ensures the cone is positioned correctly and stably for accurate testing every time.

Key Features:

• Durable Construction: The unbreakable polyethylene cone is built to last and cleans easily, while the stainless steel orifice resists corrosion and wear.
• Economical and Simple: Provides a cost-effective and user-friendly method for essential field testing.
• Complete Testing Solution: The set includes all the necessary components to perform the test right out of the box.
• Compliance: Fully meets the requirements of ASTM C939 test standards for the flow of grout mixtures.

What's Included:

• Flow Cone: A polyethylene cone featuring a fixed ½-inch (12.7mm) stainless steel discharge orifice and a stopper cap.
• Support Stand: A sturdy steel ring with adjustable legs to securely hold the cone at the proper height.
• Point Gauge Level Indicator: An adjustable gauge used to accurately set the grout volume for each test.

How it Works:

The test measures the time it takes for a specific volume of grout (1.725L) to flow out of the cone. This "efflux time" is a key indicator of the grout's consistency and flowability, ensuring it meets project specifications.

Meets Test Method:

• ASTM C 939: Standard Test Method for Flow of Grout for Preplaced-Aggregate Concrete (Flow Cone Method).

Recommended Accessories (Sold Separately):

• Grout Flow Cone (Cone Only): A replacement cone for testing flowable grouts, requiring the purchase of a separate orifice.
• Interchangeable Orifices: For different grout consistencies, consider the 0.75in Orifice, which is suitable for less flowable grouts.
• Receiving Beakers:
  • 2qt Stainless Steel Beaker: Perfectly sized to receive the grout from a single test.
  • 6qt Stainless Steel Beaker: Collects grout from up to three consecutive tests, improving efficiency.
• Large Display Stopwatch: Essential for accurately timing the efflux period to determine flowability.
