Heavy Pocket Penetrometer
Description:
it is used by geotechnicians, geologists, agronomists, etc. to obtain quickly and easily an approximate measure of the shear resistance at failure of cohesive and semicohesive soils.The 16T0163 can be used both in the field and in the laboratory with soils having UCS values (unconfined compressive strength) between zero and 2 MPa. For soft to medium soils the use of the largest tip is recommended to obtain a good resolution.16T0163 Heavy duty model, all stainless steel construction, three interchangeable tips: 4.5 mm dia. for very hard soil, 6.35 mm for medium and soft soil, 8.98 mm for soft soil. Supplied complete with plastic case.
