Reusable One-Part, Solid Shaft Spindle, SC4-29

Reusable One-Part, Solid Shaft Spindle, SC4-29

Reusable SC4 Spindles and Measuring Chamber are precision-engineered components designed for use with the Rotational Viscometer, specifically for asphalt binder testing in compliance with ASTM D4402 and AASHTO T 316 standards. These spindles are essential tools for accurately measuring the viscosity and rheological properties of asphalt binders, offering versatility to accommodate a wide range of viscosities and binder characteristics.

Each spindle is crafted from durable 316 stainless steel and features a magnetic coupling for secure and reliable operation. The spindles are fully compatible with the Rotational Viscometer’s advanced Toolmaster™ technology, which automatically recognizes Anton Paar spindles. This feature eliminates spindle selection errors, ensuring accurate, repeatable, and fully traceable test results every time.

Spindle Options for Specific Testing Needs

To meet diverse testing requirements, several spindle shaft options are available:

• Hook-Type Shaft Spindles: Ideal for testing modified asphalt binders with medium to high temperatures and low viscosities. These are the most popular choice for modified binders.
• One-Part Solid Shaft Spindles: Commonly used for unmodified binders with higher viscosities.
• Two-Part Solid Shaft Spindles: Provide added flexibility during testing and easier maintenance.
• Disposable Spindles: Suitable for one-time use when cross-contamination or quick testing turnover is a concern.

The Reusable Stainless Steel Measuring Chamber, compatible with all reusable spindles, is sold separately and provides a durable, high-quality solution for repeated use. Its sturdy construction ensures it can withstand rigorous testing environments while maintaining measurement accuracy.
