Heavy-Duty and Reliable ConstructionManufactured from mild steel or cast iron, the CBR / Proctor Rammer is built to withstand repeated use in demanding laboratory environments. The powder-coated or polished surface finish guards against corrosion, ensuring a long operational lifespan and consistent performance for soil compaction tests.
Precision in Soil TestingWith a nominal drop weight of 4.89 kg, a drop height of 310 mm, and compatibility with standard soil moulds (100 mm and 150 mm), this rammer provides accurate, repeatable compaction results. It is ideal for both CBR and Proctor standard test methods, facilitating reliable data for soil strength and compaction analysis.
User-Focused Manual OperationThe ergonomically designed steel rod handle provides excellent grip and control, allowing laboratory technicians to apply uniform blows manually. Its manageable weight and thoughtfully balanced construction reduce operator fatigue and help maintain consistent sample preparation.
FAQs of CBR / Proctor Rammer - 4.89 KG:
Q: How is the CBR / Proctor Rammer used in soil testing?
A: The rammer is manually operated to compact soil specimens in standard moulds by dropping a 4.89 kg weight from a height of 310 mm, ensuring uniform density and preparation for CBR and Proctor tests.
Q: What materials are used in the construction of this rammer?
A: This rammer is manufactured from either mild steel or cast iron for strength and durability, and features a powder-coated or polished surface for enhanced resistance to wear and corrosion.
Q: When should this equipment be used in the laboratory?
A: Use this rammer when performing soil compaction and strength tests, particularly for the determination of CBR (California Bearing Ratio) and Proctor values required for geotechnical analysis and construction projects.
Q: Where is this rammer typically operated?
A: This equipment is designed specifically for use in laboratory settings where controlled conditions are essential for accurate soil testing and compaction procedures.
Q: What is the process for operating the CBR / Proctor Rammer?
A: To operate, fill the mould with soil, position the rammer above the sample, and drop the 4.89 kg weight from 310 mm repeatedly per test standards. This ensures consistent compaction across all samples.
Q: What are the benefits of using this manually operated rammer?
A: It delivers reliable, repeatable compaction for accurate soil strength measurement, is durable for heavy-duty use, and can be used with both 100 mm and 150 mm moulds for standard laboratory tests.
