Slump Cone Base Plate
Fabricated from durable 1/4” aluminum plate. Base clamps rotates over foot lugs to secure the Slump Cone during filling. After filling of the Slump Cone, the base can be released without disturbance of the sample.
After lifting of the Slump Cone, the handle swings vertically over the sample to facilitate measurement of the resulting concrete slump.
The base can be used to consolidate entire slump testing set into one, easy to carry unit.
Accessories for the Slump Cone Tests:
- Graduated Tamping Rod, 24 x 5/8in is a round, straight steel rod used with concrete cylinder molds, slump cones, and unit weight tests.
- Tamping Rod, 12 x 3/8in is rounded hemispherical tips, less scale and used primarily on 4" test cylinders.
- Aluminum Scoop, 24oz, Round Mouth, #1 makes easy work of concrete sampling for slump or air entrainment testing.
- Strike Off Bar, Aluminum, 1 x 12in is used to remove excess material when molding concrete cylinder specimens and slump cone tests.
- Slump Cone Filling Funnel for Concrete is used to allow for fast and easy filling of Slump Cones.
Slump Cone Test Sets Meets Test Methods:
AASHTO T119
ASTM C 143
ASTM C 143M

The Slump Cone Base Plate is a durable and reliable base plate designed specifically for use with Slump Cones during concrete testing. Made from sturdy 1/4” aluminum plate, this base plate ensures stability and support for accurate measurements.
The unique feature of this base plate is its rotating base clamps that secure the Slump Cone in place during filling. This ensures that the sample remains undisturbed during the filling process, providing accurate results. Once the Slump Cone is filled, the base can be easily released without disturbing the sample, making it convenient and efficient.
After lifting the Slump Cone, the handle on the base plate swings vertically over the sample, enabling easy measurement of the resulting concrete slump. This ergonomic design simplifies the measurement process and allows for precise readings.
In addition to its functionality, the Slump Cone Base Plate serves as a consolidation tool for the entire slump testing set. Its compact and portable design allows for easy transportation, reducing the need for multiple pieces of equipment.
To further enhance your concrete testing experience, we offer a range of accessories designed specifically for use with the Slump Cone. Our Graduated Tamping Rod, Tamping Rod, Aluminum Scoop, Strike Off Bar, and Slump Cone Filling Funnel are essential tools that ensure accurate and efficient testing.
The Slump Cone Base Plate and its accessories meet various test methods, including AASHTO T119, ASTM C 143, ASTM C 143M, and BS 1881. This ensures that you can rely on the accuracy and quality of your test results.
