Penetration
Are you looking to determine the consistency of a cement paste? If so, you might be interested in an automatic Vicat apparatus, which can accurately and efficiently test the initial and final setting times of cement paste. Performing a Vicat apparatus test requires some specialized equipment, and Forney has everything you need.
Our automatic Vicat apparatus is manufactured using corrosion-resistant components and can operate effectively in climates with humidity levels exceeding 90%. This device maintains a temperature-controlled testing environment and is entirely automated, which presents you with accurate, repeatable results. It even has a built-in printer that produces readouts from each Vicat apparatus test procedure.
We also offer modified Vicat apparatuses with analog readings if you don’t need all of the bells and whistles of an automatic Vicat apparatus. Forney is also your one-stop shop for Vicat apparatus test accessories. We sell Vicat needles, Vicat glass plates, plungers, cone penetrometers, and more. If you’re looking for the simplest possible penetration testing devices, you might be interested in one of our convenient portable pocket penetrometers, which we offer in either analog or digital versions.
Penetration tests are essential, as they’re the best way to determine the consistency of a concrete paste material. If you’re wondering whether an automatic Vicat apparatus or a more straightforward pocket or needle penetrometer is the right choice for your needs, simply contact Forney at your convenience. We’re always happy to help our customers find exactly what they need to keep their businesses running at peak efficiency!
