Rebound Hammer Calibration Anvil

Rebound Hammer Calibration Anvil: Calibration Test Guide

Test Anvil for Rebound Hammer: Concrete Calibration Guide

The Schmidt Hammer Calibration Test Anvil can be used to check the calibration of concrete test hammer models, specifically concrete test hammer models, after every 1,000—2,000 impacts. The Schmidt Hammer Calibration Anvil has a solid steel 6in (152mm) diaanvil with a hammer guide and hardened alloy steel rebound plate. The hammer guide ensures proper operation and accuracy during calibration. It is compatible with equipment from various manufacturers.

The Calibration Anvil is designed to meet the requirements of ASTM E 18. A wire brush for cleaning is included. Class F Calibration Weights, NIST, 25kg, Traceable are also available at Certified MTP. Find everything you need for accurate and reliable testing at Certified MTP including the NR Hammer, a rebar locator, and more.

The Schmidt Hammer Calibration Test Anvil Meets Test Methods: ASTM C 805 BS 1881-202

What is Calibration

Calibration is a big deal in ensuring the accuracy and reliability of concrete test hammers. It’s verifying the rebound energy of the hammer to make sure it’s working right. Calibration is important to maintain the accuracy of the test hammer’s measurements which is critical in determining the compressive strength of concrete. A calibration anvil is a tool used to calibrate concrete test hammers and it’s designed to provide a consistent and reliable test surface to verify the operation of the test hammer.

What Happens if Not Calibrated Properly

Not calibrating your concrete test hammers can have a big impact on the accuracy and reliability of your testing results. When you don’t calibrate your hammer using a dedicated calibration test anvil like the HM-76B, the risk of getting minimum rebound readings increases. This can lead to incorrect concrete strength and quality assessments, costly rework, project delays or even safety hazards on site.

When choosing a calibration anvil, customers should consider the shipping weight (around 40 lbs or 18.1 kg), the type of hammers used and the frequency of testing. Most calibration anvils come with the anvil itself and a wire brush for maintenance, a complete solution for your testing needs.

Buying a calibration test anvil not only helps you adjust and refine your testing procedures but also ensures your test hammers will continue to give accurate and repeatable results. This in turn helps you make informed decisions on quality and structural integrity. For questions or concerns about calibration anvils or test hammers, it’s recommended to find and contact us via email or phone to discuss your requirements and get expert advice.

By adding a calibration anvil to your cart you are taking a big step in improving your concrete testing efficiency and accuracy. The date of purchase and performance number of your calibration anvil are important to keep track of so your equipment is always up to standard for every testing application. A well maintained calibration anvil is an essential part of any testing setup, so you can test with confidence and precision and get reliable results for every project.
