BENTONITE SLURRY SAMPLER 50 METERS AZA0813
The AZA0813 Bentonite Slurry Sampler from azalab is a robust, field-ready sampling device designed to obtain clean, uncontaminated samples of drilling slurry, bentonite mixes, grout, and cement-based slurries. Manufactured from high-quality white PVC, this sampler incorporates a double check-ball system that locks the slurry inside the chamber, preventing dilution or mixing with surrounding layers during retrieval.
With a 12-inch sample chamber and a 20-inch overall body length, the AZA0813 sampler is optimized for high-volume collection and smooth handling on construction, geotechnical, and foundation engineering sites. Its FDOT-approved design ensures compliance for critical QA/QC applications in diaphragm walling, piling, trenching, and drilling operations.aza
Lightweight yet durable, the PVC body resists corrosion, making it ideal for repeated field use and harsh job-site conditions.

JOLTING APPARATUS AZA0802
The AZA0802 Jolting Apparatus is a precision-engineered laboratory instrument designed for uniform compaction of cement mortar specimens, ensuring reproducibility and accuracy in strength testing. It plays a vital role in preparing mortar prisms for compressive and flexural strength tests, eliminating air voids and ensuring homogeneous density throughout each specimen.
Manufactured in accordance with IS 10080:1982, and suitable for use under EN 196-1 and ASTM C348 testing standards, the AZA0802 is essential for any laboratory involved in cement quality evaluation, research, or certification.
Whether used in construction QC labs, cement manufacturing units, academic institutions, or R&D centers, the AZA0802 offers dependable, consistent, and safe compaction performance for standardized mortar testing.
Why Compaction Matters in Mortar Testing
The quality and reliability of mortar strength tests depend heavily on the degree of compaction during specimen preparation. Air voids, improper leveling, or inconsistent compaction can lead to inaccurate test values and unreliable performance assessments.
The AZA0802 utilizes a mechanical cam-driven system delivering 60 precise jolts per minute, effectively removing entrapped air from the mortar mix. An inbuilt 60-second automatic timer ensures standard-compliant compaction by stopping the machine after the required number of jolts.
This ensures:
-
Highly consistent mortar density
-
Repeatable strength results
-
Compliance with national and international testing standards
Applications Across Industries
The AZA0802 Jolting Apparatus is widely used in:
-
Cement manufacturing QC laboratories
