DUROMETER (PENETROMETERS) FOR CLAYS AND SOIL

Used to determine the hardness of extruded clays (for bricks, roof tiles, “cotto” tiles, etc.), and clay pats (for art, sanitary fittings, plates, etc.).

Technical specifications

The operating principle is based on the force of contrast exerted by the sample material on the penetration of the calibrated spring of the
instrument, when the pin is pressed into the material until it reaches the support.
In this way, a steady force at a steady stroke is always applied to the instrument.
