CUBE MOULD, PLASTIC AZA1155
The AZA-LAB Plastic Cube Mould (AZA1155) is a lightweight, durable, and reusable concrete mould engineered for casting standard 150 mm concrete cubes used in compressive strength testing. Built for both laboratory and field environments, this mould delivers dimensional accuracy, ease of handling, and long-term performance without the drawbacks associated with metal moulds.
Made from high-density, non-corrosive polymer, the mould resists rusting, denting, warping, and environmental degradation. It is specifically designed to perform reliably under harsh site conditions and repetitive laboratory use, making it an ideal choice for quality control operations in construction, research institutions, and material testing laboratories.
The mould comprises four interlocking sides and a solid base, ensuring stable assembly and sharp-edged cube formation. Its tight-fitting joints prevent slurry leakage during pouring and compaction, ensuring uniform specimen quality. Demoulding is effortless due to its smooth, non-stick internal surfaces—eliminating the need for excessive lubrication or hammering, and reducing the risk of damaging test specimens.
With minimal cleaning requirements and excellent resistance to cement buildup, the AZA1155 supports high-frequency testing workflows, whether at permanent laboratories or mobile field testing units.
The cube mould conforms to IS 516, BS 1881, and ASTM C39 requirements for concrete testing, ensuring compatibility with industry-standard quality control practices.

CHASE AIR INDICATOR AZA1105
AZA1105 Chase Air Indicator is a compact, lightweight, and highly practical field instrument designed to measure the air content in freshly mixed concrete. It is widely used in construction sites where rapid quality decisions are required and laboratory testing equipment is not readily available.
This device serves as a reliable field alternative to standard air content methods such as ASTM C231 (Pressure Method) and ASTM C173 (Volumetric Method). While it is not intended to replace laboratory-grade instruments, it provides fast, useful guidance that helps engineers and site supervisors maintain proper concrete mix quality.
Air entrainment plays a critical role in concrete durability, especially in regions exposed to freeze–thaw cycles, and contributes significantly to workability and pumpability of concrete. AZA1105 helps ensure that air content remains within the recommended range (typically 4%–7%), reducing the risk of weak or brittle concrete.
The working principle is based on fluid displacement and vacuum pressure balance. A representative mortar sample is collected and placed inside the testing chamber, where a controlled vacuum is applied. The internal pressure difference is translated directly to a calibrated dial gauge showing the approximate air content percentage.
With no electrical components, moving mechanical assemblies, or complex maintenance requirements, the AZA1105 is extremely reliable and built for tough field conditions. Its rugged body and easy-to-read dial make it suitable for continuous daily use in real-world jobsite environments.
