Penetration Needle & Cone, Grease Penetrometers, Brass ASTM D217
The Grease Penetrometer is a crucial instrument used for testing the consistency and quality of lubricating greases. It operates by measuring the penetration of a standardized cone or needle into a grease sample under specified conditions. This process determines the grease's stiffness, which is essential for ensuring it performs correctly in various mechanical applications.
Key Features and Specifications:
-
Compliance with Industry Standards: Our Grease Penetrometers are designed to meet rigorous international testing standards, including ASTM D217 (Standard Test Methods for Cone Penetration of Lubricating Grease) and ASTM D937 (Standard Test Method for Cone Penetration of Petrolatum). Adherence to these standards ensures your results are accurate, repeatable, and comparable across the industry.
-
Penetration Cone: This model includes the penetration cone, meticulously crafted for precision.
- Material: Hollow brass cone with a 90° angle.
- Design: Features a hardened steel tip and a removable, threaded nut and stem for easy cleaning and maintenance.
- Weight: Precisely calibrated to a total weight of 102.5g, as required by ASTM standards, to ensure consistent penetration depth measurements.
This equipment is indispensable for quality control and research and development in the petroleum, automotive, and manufacturing industries, helping you verify that your grease products meet their required performance specifications.
