Grout Prism Capping Stand

Grout Prism Capping Stand

Grout Prism Capping Stand

The Grout Prism Capping Stand is designed to prepare masonry grout specimens for accurate compressive strength testing, accommodating samples up to 3.5in (89mm) square. This durable device ensures specimens remain perfectly perpendicular during capping with sulfur mortar compounds, resulting in precise and reliable strength measurements. Its vertical guides maintain proper alignment, while the capping plate and recessed area with beveled sides meet ASTM standards for hardness and depth, ensuring caps that distribute loads evenly during testing. Crafted with solid steel, the robust two-piece construction is built to withstand rigorous use in laboratory settings.

The stand is compatible with grout specimens molded using the Grout Sample Box, making it a versatile tool for construction material testing. Caps formed with Gilson Gray Iron 9000 or other sulfur mortar compounds ensure accurate load distribution, providing consistent and dependable test results.
