WIRE BASKET (G100P002H)

Category: General

Product Code: G100P002H

Category: GENERAL

Sub-Category: GENERAL PURPOSE

 

  • Used for determining the specific gravity and water absorption of coarse aggregates by the buoyancy method, this wire basket ensures reliable and repeatable results in accordance with international testing standards.
  • Manufactured from high-grade stainless steel, the basket provides excellent corrosion resistance and long-term durability even under frequent immersion in water or chemical solutions.
  • The mesh size of 3.35 mm (No. 6 ASTM) complies with standard requirements for aggregate testing and allows proper water circulation during testing.
  • The cylindrical shape with a 200 mm diameter and 200 mm height ensures optimal volume for holding aggregate samples without overloading, minimizing errors due to overlapping particles.
  • A fixed stainless steel handle allows the basket to be securely suspended from an electronic balance during submerged weighing, as required in specific gravity determinations.
  • Compatible with most standard Specific Gravity Frames and balances equipped with an under-hook system, making it a versatile component in any aggregate testing setup.
  • Also suitable for use in aggregate soundness tests such as those involving magnesium sulfate or sodium sulfate immersion methods.
