K-SLUMP TESTER AZA1104
AZA1104 K-Slump Tester is a fast, reliable, and non-destructive testing device designed to measure the workability and consistency of fresh concrete directly at construction sites or in laboratory environments. It provides instant slump approximation without the need for traditional slump cones, base plates, or tamping rods, making it an essential tool for modern concrete quality control.
This handheld instrument is widely used by civil engineers, site technicians, and quality inspectors who require quick, repeatable, and real-time results during concrete batching, transportation, and placement. Its simple design eliminates complicated setup, reducing testing time and operator fatigue.
Manufactured from high-grade stainless steel, the probe is corrosion-resistant and suitable for harsh site conditions. The etched scale markings provide direct readings in millimeters or inches, allowing accurate penetration depth measurement without additional instruments.
Unlike traditional slump testing methods, the AZA1104 enables non-destructive testing, meaning the concrete surface remains intact and usable after testing. This feature is especially useful when multiple checks are needed during large pours or continuous batching operation
SLUMP TEST APPARATUS AZA1102
AZA1102 Slump Test Apparatus is designed for the accurate evaluation of concrete workability and consistency in both laboratory and field conditions. It is an essential quality control tool used in construction projects, civil engineering laboratories, and educational institutions.
This apparatus complies with IS 7320 and BS 1881-102 standards, ensuring reliable and standardized test results. It is primarily used to determine the slump value of fresh concrete, indicating its ease of placement, compaction, and finishing.
The set includes a durable metal slump cone manufactured to standard dimensions — 200 mm bottom diameter, 100 mm top diameter, and 300 mm height — providing dimensional accuracy and long service life. A 16 mm diameter tamping rod, 600 mm long with rounded ends, is provided to properly compact the concrete sample in layers.
The apparatus is suitable for testing concrete with aggregate sizes up to 38 mm, making it ideal for common residential, commercial, and infrastructure applications.
To improve handling and stability, the unit includes a rigid base plate with clamping arrangements and lifting handles, making it easy to use both on construction sites and in laboratories.
The AZA1102 Slump Test Apparatus is known for its simple operation, rugged construction, high accuracy, and low maintenance, making it a dependable choice for routine concrete testing.
V FUNNEL AZA1111
AZA1111 V Funnel is a precision laboratory apparatus designed to measure the flow time and viscosity of Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC). It evaluates how quickly fresh SCC passes through a narrow, V-shaped section under the action of gravity, providing critical insight into the concrete’s workability, stability, and resistance to segregation.
The V Funnel test is essential when designing SCC mixes that must flow through heavily reinforced or congested formwork. By recording the time taken for concrete to completely discharge from the funnel, the apparatus allows engineers and technicians to quickly judge whether a mix is too stiff, too viscous, or optimally balanced.
Manufactured with a durable, corrosion-resistant metal body and a precise quick-release gate mechanism, AZA1111 ensures smooth, repeatable testing. Its rigid structure and stable stand make it suitable for both laboratory and site-based quality control environments.
The equipment is designed in compliance with EN 12350-9 and EFNARC guidelines, ensuring globally accepted and repeatable test results
