Rainhart 665-MLD-6S8.5 Straight Wall Mold (6" ID x 8.5" H)
The Rainhart 665-MLD-6S8.5 is a high-quality, precision-manufactured compaction mold designed for soil density testing in geotechnical laboratories. Measuring 6 inches in internal diameter by 8.5 inches in height, this straight-wall mold is specifically engineered to meet the stringent requirements of Texas test methods Tex-117-E and Tex-113-E.
Constructed from durable, clear-zinc plated steel, these rugged molds offer exceptional rust resistance and longevity, ensuring reliable performance even with frequent use. They are essential tools for a variety of geotechnical tests, including the Proctor Compaction Test, California Bearing Ratio (CBR), and Limerock Bearing Ratio (LBR). Rainhart offers these as complete sets, which typically include the mold body, a detachable base plate, and a collar, or as individual components for replacement needs.
Rainhart Proctor Soil Compactor: The Industry Standard
For laboratories seeking unparalleled efficiency and accuracy, the Rainhart Proctor Soil Compactor stands out as the most versatile and advanced solution available. Built for high-volume testing environments, this compactor is engineered for low maintenance and maximum operational efficiency.
A key feature is its signature circular compaction pattern. The machine automatically delivers blows relative to the specimen's height, eliminating the need for manual adjustments between layers. Unlike conventional compactors where the mold rotates, the Rainhart's tamping head revolves around the stationary specimen. This unique mechanism produces more consistent and accurate results while significantly reducing cycle times.
Furthermore, all Rainhart tamping heads are interchangeable with a single shaft, a cost-effective design that removes the need for multiple expensive parts. The system is supported by a comprehensive list of accessories, including various tamping heads (pie-shaped, circular), molds, perforated base plates for CBR testing, and finishing tools. This extensive compatibility ensures the Rainhart Soil Compactor can perform virtually any soil compaction test and is the only compactor compatible with the Soil Compaction Analyzer (SCA).
