PLASTIC BEAM MOULD AZA1128

The Azalab AZA1128 Polyurethane Beam Mould Series is engineered for casting concrete beam specimens used in flexural strength tests. Built from high-impact, shock-absorbing polyurethane, these moulds deliver exceptional durability, dimensional accuracy, and ease of handling. Their lightweight yet robust design makes them suitable for both laboratory and field applications.

Polyurethane offers superior resilience compared to traditional metal or rigid plastic alternatives, enabling these moulds to withstand vibration, repeated use, and environmental exposure. The smooth internal finish ensures clean, damage-free demoulding, while the mould structure maintains consistency across multiple cycles.

Each AZA1128 mould complies with IS 516, ASTM C78, and BS 1881, ensuring reliable and standardized test preparation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Are the AZA1128 polyurethane beam moulds reusable?
Yes. With proper oiling and cleaning, they easily support 30+ testing cycles.

Q2: What sizes are suitable for IS 516 flexural tests?
Both 100×100×500 mm and 150×150×700 mm sizes are widely used in IS 516 test procedures.

Q3: Should I apply demoulding oil before use?
Yes, always apply a release agent for smoother demoulding and longer mould life.

Q4: Can these moulds be used on vibration tables?
Yes. Polyurethane’s resilience allows it to withstand vibration and compaction without deformation.

Q5: How do these compare to metal beam moulds?
They are lighter, rust-free, easier to clean, non-deforming, and require zero maintenance such as painting or lubrication of bolts.
