Vicat needle apparatus
The Vicat Needle Apparatus is a precision instrument designed for determining the setting times and consistency of cement. Essential for laboratories and construction quality control, this apparatus accurately measures the initial and final setting times of cement paste, making it an indispensable tool in the analysis of cementitious materials. Constructed with a stable, corrosion-resistant base and equipped with a plunger and standardized needles, the apparatus ensures reliable, repeatable results. The unit typically includes a graduated scale for exact depth measurements and is designed to meet various ASTM and IS standards, providing a standardized approach to quality assessment in cement testing.
