The Andreasen pipette is used to extract precise quantities of suspension ready for analysis.

Bar Sieves (Grids)

Bar sieves are used to determine the flakiness index of aggregates.

Methylene Blue Test Set

The Methylene Blue Test is a method used to determine the clay content in the fines fraction of aggregates.

Sand Equivalent Shaker

QCLAB’ motorized Sand Equivalent Shaker is a specialized piece of equipment used in the materials testing industry to determine the sand equivalent value of fine aggregates.

Sand Equivalent Test Set

The Sand Equivalent Test measures the ratio of sand to clay-like or plastic fines in the aggregate material.
