Masonry Block Cap, 8in x 16in (20/Pack)

Masonry Block Cap, 8in x 16in

The Masonry Block Cap provides an innovative and efficient unbonded capping solution for compressive strength testing of masonry units. This cost-effective alternative to traditional sulfur capping significantly reduces preparation time, labor, and equipment needs, eliminating the necessity for ladles and melting pots.

Each cap features a fibrous composite laminated to tough plastic sheeting, ensuring rigidity, proper load distribution, and superior protection for your machine platens. During compression, this advanced composite material flows to perfectly fill any irregularities in the concrete masonry unit, guaranteeing uniform distribution of test loads for accurate and reliable results.

While offering comparable accuracy to capping with Hydrocal Gypsum, this method is specifically designed for internal Quality Control (QC) testing applications. It streamlines your workflow by removing the need for messy mixing, precise cutting, or tedious measuring. Each carton conveniently contains ten single-use sets (two caps per set), ready to use.
