L SHAPE BOX APPARATUS AZA1112
AZA1112 L Shape Box Apparatus is a precision testing device designed to evaluate the passing ability and flow performance of Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) in congested reinforcement conditions. This apparatus simulates real-world scenarios such as densely reinforced beams, columns, tunnels, and bridge segments, where concrete must flow freely without segregation or blockage.
The distinctive L-shaped design creates a controlled flow path where freshly mixed SCC moves from a vertical chamber into a horizontal channel containing reinforcement bars. By measuring the concrete heights at both ends (H1 and H2), the H2/H1 ratio is calculated, providing a direct, quantitative assessment of the concrete’s ability to pass through obstructions.
Manufactured from durable, corrosion-resistant steel, AZA1112 is built for long-term laboratory and site use. It conforms to EN 12350-10 and EFNARC guidelines, ensuring global acceptance of test results.

SLUMP CONE, PLASTIC AZA1103
AZA1103 Slump Cone (Plastic) is a durable and lightweight testing tool designed for accurate measurement of concrete workability and consistency. It is widely used in construction sites, civil engineering laboratories, and quality control departments for fast and reliable slump testing of fresh concrete mixes.
Unlike traditional metal cones, this model is manufactured from high-quality rigid plastic, making it corrosion-resistant, dent-proof, and highly suitable for repeated field and laboratory use. Its lightweight construction makes it easy to transport and ideal for site engineers and mobile testing teams.
The apparatus is manufactured to standard dimensions and fully complies with IS 1199 and ASTM C143, ensuring accurate and repeatable test results. The smooth internal surface minimizes friction, allowing easy release of concrete and improving measurement accuracy.
This slump cone helps engineers quickly determine if a concrete mix has the correct consistency for placement, compaction, and finishing. It is especially useful for quality checks before concrete pouring to avoid honeycombing, segregation, or improper flow.
AZA1103 is reusable, easy to clean, and requires minimal maintenance, making it a long-lasting and cost-effective solution 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
