Grout Flow Cone with 3/4in Orifice, Polyethylene

Grout Flow Cone with 3/4" Orifice, Polyethylene

The Grout Flow Cone is an essential tool for field measurements of grout flowability, specifically designed for fluid hydraulic grouts used in preplaced aggregate concrete. This method is standardized by ASTM C939 and is intended for use with grouts that have an efflux time of 35 seconds or less.

Key Features:

• Durable Construction: The cone is crafted from rugged, unbreakable polyethylene, ensuring it can withstand the demanding conditions of a job site. The orifice is made from high-quality stainless steel, offering excellent resistance to corrosion and abrasion.
• Ease of Use: This cone is economically priced, simple to operate, and cleans easily after use, saving you valuable time and effort.
• Standardized Testing: Designed to meet the specifications of ASTM C939, it provides a reliable and repeatable method for determining the consistency and flow of your grout mixture.

How It Works:

The test involves filling the cone with a specified volume of grout while the orifice is blocked. The block is then removed, and a stopwatch is used to measure the time it takes for the grout to completely flow out of the cone. This duration, known as the "efflux time," is an indicator of the grout's flowability.

Included with Purchase:

• One (1) Polyethylene Grout Flow Cone
• One (1) 3/4" Stainless Steel Discharge Orifice with a cap

Recommended Accessories (Sold Separately):

• Flow Cone Stand: Crucial for ensuring the cone is properly positioned and perfectly level during testing, which is essential for accurate and repeatable results.
• Interchangeable Orifices:
  • Grout Flow Cone Orifice (HMA-146 or HMA-147): Required for testing different types of flowable grouts.
  • Flow Cone w/ 0.5in Orifice: A separate cone and orifice combination for measuring the flowability of thicker grout materials.
• Collection Beakers:
  • 2qt Stainless Steel Beaker: Perfectly sized to receive the grout from a single test.
  • 6qt Stainless Steel Beaker: Has a larger capacity to collect grout from up to three separate tests before needing to be emptied.
• Large Display Stopwatch: Essential for accurately timing the efflux period. A large, clear display ensures easy reading in any environment.
