Soil Pocket Penetrometer
Description
The Soil Pocket Penetrometer is constructed of stainless steel. It is a simple, lightweight, handheld device made for instant estimates of unconfined compressive strength of cohesive soils.
Although it does not replace laboratory Unconfined Compressive Strength Test Systems for the determination of unconfined shear strengths, the Pocket Penetrometer is a valuable tool for providing approximate values quickly.
Specifications
- Direct-reading scale - in tons/sq ft, or kg/sq cm
- Corresponds to equivalent unconfined compressive strength
- Range: 0 to 4.5 tons
- High quality construction
- Includes belt-loop style carrying case and operating instructions
