Description

Flexural Testing Machine 250KN – Hand Operated

The Azalab Hand Operated Flexural Testing Machine 250KN is designed for accurate and efficient testing of flexural strength in concrete beams. Crafted with precision and built using high-grade materials, this unit ensures reliable performance in both field and laboratory settings.

This testing machine is an essential tool for civil engineers, testing labs, construction quality control teams, and academic research facilities that require accurate flexural strength measurements of concrete specimens. With a manually operated hydraulic system and durable design, the machine supports testing of standard-sized beams while meeting international quality standards.

Built for Precision and Strength

The machine operates manually using a hydraulic jack, making it ideal for locations with limited access to electricity. The robust steel frame offers exceptional durability and rigidity, ensuring no deflection during testing. It includes a lead screw mechanism that adjusts vertical daylight to accommodate different beam sizes.

Its Bourdon-type pressure gauge offers a range of 0–100 kN, with a least count of 0.5 kN. The gauge is calibrated using certified proving rings, ensuring dependable and traceable measurement accuracy.

Key Applications

Designed for flexural testing only, this unit supports beam sizes of 100x100x500 mm and 150x150x700 mm, aligning with testing standards such as IS 516, BS 1881, and ASTM C 78. It is especially useful in:

  • Civil construction project sites

  • Ready-mix concrete (RMC) facilities

  • Government material testing laboratories

  • Engineering colleges and research labs

Ergonomic and Portable

Despite its rugged frame, the unit remains compact and portable, weighing approximately 150 kg. With a height of 850 mm, it offers optimal working height for manual operation. The hydraulic jack includes a retraction spring that resets the piston efficiently after each test.

The 200 mm pressure gauge is easily visible and user-friendly, reducing operator fatigue and ensuring precise readings. The horizontal clearance of 210 mm allows convenient placement of beam specimens.aza
