GAUGING TROWEL AZA0807
The AZA0807 Gauging Trowel is a precision-built laboratory tool essential for manual mixing of cement paste, mortar, and related construction materials. Its durable stainless-steel blade and ergonomic handle provide excellent control, enabling the preparation of uniform and contamination-free samples for cement testing procedures.
Widely used in laboratories performing IS:4031, IS:1727, and other hydraulic cement testing standards, the AZA0807 ensures accurate gauging of cement paste—an important step in tests related to consistency, setting time, fineness, compressive strength, and soundness.
Designed for heavy-duty laboratory operation, the trowel features a flexible, mirror-finished blade that resists corrosion and prevents material adherence. Whether for sample preparation in government labs, cement manufacturing QC labs, or academic institutions, the AZA0807 offers reliability, precision, and long-lasting performance.
