Aluminum Strike-Off Bar for Concrete Air Meters (1" x 13.5")
The Aluminum Strike-Off Bar is an essential tool for precise and accurate concrete testing. Measuring 1 inch by 13.5 inches, this bar is specifically designed to strike off the top surface of a concrete sample in a testing bowl.
Key Features & Usage:
This strike-off bar is used to level excess concrete from the measuring bowl of a concrete air meter. By sliding the bar across the top rim of the base in a back-and-forth sawing motion, you can ensure the concrete is perfectly level with the top of the bowl. This step is critical for obtaining an accurate measurement of the air content in freshly mixed concrete, as specified in ASTM C231 and AASHTO T152 test methods. The bar's durable yet lightweight aluminum construction ensures it will not rust or corrode while being easy to handle.
Meets Test Methods:
- AASHTO T152: Standard Method of Test for Air Content of Freshly Mixed Concrete by the Pressure Method.
- ASTM C231: Standard Test Method for Air Content of Freshly Mixed Concrete by the Pressure Method.
