Description:
- UTC-4609EG and UTC-4609EG compression testing frames for masonry units/ blocks, cylinders and cubes consist of a loading cylinder assembly, lower and upper (spherically-seated) loading platens.
- The compression testing frames provides the stability needed for accurate and repeatable test results over the years of operation.
- Any hydraulic power pack with control and read out unit and a pressure transducer for measuring the loads, can be positioned on the right-hand side of the load frame for easier accessibility, increased productivity and for safer operations.
- All frames have a single acting up stroking ram and also have front and rear protective doors and limit switch for piston stroke for safety.
- The diameter of the pistons is designed to work with their load capacities.
- There is a low friction coaxial PTFE seal between the cylinder and the piston fitted to the cylinder.
- The lower loading platens are provided with lines for centring specimens
- UTC-4682 Pedestal that are made of steel to facilitate the user’s placement of specimens in the frames for compression test should be ordered separately.
- See the below table for supplied items with the frames.
