CONCRETE FLOW TABLE TEST SET AZA1110
AZA1110 Concrete Flow Table Test Set is a precision-engineered laboratory apparatus designed to determine the workability, consistency, and flow characteristics of fresh concrete. It is especially suitable for Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC), precast concrete, and high-consistency mixes where the traditional slump test is not effective.
This test set works by allowing a freshly mixed concrete sample to spread under controlled, repeated vertical jolts of a mechanically calibrated table. The final spread diameter of the concrete is measured to assess its flowability and uniformity.
Built with a rigid, precisely machined table surface, the AZA1110 ensures repeatable and reliable results. Its heavy-duty construction allows long-term use in demanding laboratory environments while remaining easy to clean, store, and maintain.
The apparatus complies with major international standards including IS 1199, ASTM C1437, and BS EN 12350-5, making it suitable for both domestic and international testing requirements.
