Description and Specification for Lab Tenders
Astra Scientific Compression-Flexure Cement Testing Frames.
General Properties:
These Multipurpose compression / flexural testers have been designed for various applications in which a limited maximum load is requested, together with a large testing space such as, for instance, compressive strength on lightweight concrete and soil-cement specimens using, if necessary, the suitable accessories. It is also ideal for testing high strength cement and refractory specimens. The large testing space is ideal for performing, with the suitable accessory, splitting tests and flexural tests on concrete specimens. Two versions are available:
Single compression station, 500 kN or 600 kN cap.: for compression tests on low strength specimens.
Double station model, 600/15 kN or 500/15 kN cap.: extends the possible applications to flexural tests on cement and compression tests on low strength specimens.
