Reusable 4x8in Steel Concrete Molds, Test Cylinder Mold

Reusable 4x8in Steel Concrete Molds: Test Cylinder Mold

Heavy steel mold with 1/4” wall. Two quick acting clamps along the longitudinal split allow mold to open slightly for removal of specimen. Comes with 1/4 thk. base plate. Zinc plated.

Concrete test cylinder and base plate are made of heavy-duty steel. All parts are rust treated and non-reactive to cement ingredients. Metal cylinder is built to withstand heavy use and produce high quality test specimens.

Steel Concrete Cylinder Molds are reusable many times over. When clamps are released, mold opens slightly. Base plate is detachable and fits tight. All parts are plated for rust resistance and non-reactive to cement ingredients. Steel molds give uniform results and are dimensionally stable under heavy use. Other concrete test cylinder molds available.

Concrete cylinder molds are an essential tool in construction and testing industry to shape and form concrete into cylindrical shape. These molds ensure that concrete cylinders meet strict standards and specifications hence are critical for quality control and structural integrity. Available in steel, plastic and cast iron, each type of mold has its own benefits. Steel molds are durable and dimensionally stable, plastic molds are light weight and easy to handle, cast iron molds are precise and long lasting. By choosing the right material you can get optimal performance and reliability in your concrete testing and construction projects.

Key Features and Benefits

Concrete cylinder molds have following key features and benefits:

• Steel molds: Made of heavy duty steel, dimensionally stable and can withstand heavy use. For demanding applications.

• Easy specimen removal: Designed for quick removal of specimen.

• Rust resistant: Plated for rust resistance.

• Lifetime supply: Unlimited shelf life. Cost effective for long term use.

• Weather proof: Can withstand various weather conditions. Works in extreme temperatures.

These features gives concrete cylinder molds reliable and uniform results. A valuable asset in any concrete testing or construction project.

Applications

Concrete cylinder molds have following applications:

• Construction: To create concrete cylinders for testing and inspection. To meet the standards and specifications.

• Testing and research: Used in laboratories and research institutions to create concrete cylinders for various tests and analysis.

• Precast concrete production: Used to produce precast concrete cylinders for construction projects to ensure uniformity and quality.

These applications shows how important concrete cylinder molds are in maintaining concrete structures integrity and quality.

How to Choose Concrete Cylinder Mold

Choose the right concrete cylinder mold by considering:

• Material: Steel, plastic or cast iron. Steel is durable and dimensionally stable, plastic is light weight and easy to handle, cast iron is precise.

• Size and shape: Make sure the mold can hold the desired size and shape of the concrete cylinder.

• Ease of use: Choose molds that allows easy removal of concrete cylinder to simplify the testing process.

• Durability: Choose a mold that can be used many times without compromising quality.

By considering these you can choose the right mold that meets your needs and gives reliable results.

Compared to Others

Concrete cylinder molds have advantages over others:

• Plastic molds: While plastic molds are light weight and user friendly, they lack durability and precision of steel molds.

• Cast iron molds: Durable and precise. Heavy and expensive than steel molds.

• Silicone molds: Flexible and precise. Not as durable as steel molds and not suitable for heavy use.

In general steel molds gives balance of durability, precision and cost. That’s why many prefer them for concrete testing and construction.
