2in Unbonded Capping Neoprene Pad Cap, 70 Durometer
Sold individually. Two are required for compression testing of concrete cylinders. Choose 12 for one box.
The 2in (50.8mm) Neoprene Pads are 0.5in (12.7mm) thick and available in 50 or 70 durometers. They are used for compressive strength testing of 2in concrete cylinders. The pads flow during compression to fill irregularities in cylinder ends and ensure load uniformity. The 2in Steel Retainer Set is purchased separately and has two rings to hold one pad at each end of the concrete cylinder. Each pad can be used for up to 100 tests, and two pads are required for a single test. Each of these models can also be used with 2.125in (54mm) dia. rock cores.
The 2in, 70 Durometer Pads work well in testing concrete strengths from 4,000-7,000psi (28-50mPa).
Compression pads are available in several hardnesses.
- 50 duro for design strength 1500 to 6000 psi
- 60 duro for design strength 2500 to 7000 psi
- 70 duro for design strength 4000 to 12000 psi
Per ASTM C1231, the pad can be reused up to a maximum of 100 times.

The 2in Unbonded Capping Neoprene Pad Cap, 70 Durometer is a must-have product for anyone involved in compression testing of concrete cylinders. Sold individually, this pad cap is a key component in ensuring accurate and reliable test results.
Our neoprene pad cap measures 2in (50.8mm) in diameter and is 0.5in (12.7mm) thick. It is available in two durometers: 50 and 70. For concrete strengths ranging from 4,000-7,000psi (28-50mPa), the 70 Durometer Pads are the ideal choice.
During compression testing, these neoprene pads flow to fill any irregularities in the cylinder ends, ensuring load uniformity. This critical feature guarantees accurate measurement of the concrete's compressive strength. Each pad can be used for up to 100 tests, making it a durable and cost-effective option for frequent testing.
To use the 2in Unbonded Capping Neoprene Pad Cap, you will also need the 2in Steel Retainer Set, which is sold separately. This set includes two rings that securely hold one pad at each end of the concrete cylinder. The pad cap is suitable for use with 2.125in (54mm) diameter rock cores as well.
Designed to meet the Test Methods specified by AASHTO T22 and ASTM C 1231, this pad cap ensures compliance with industry standards. It is a reliable choice for professionals in the field who require accurate and consistent compression testing results.
In addition, our neoprene pad caps are available in different hardnesses to suit a range of design strengths. Whether you need a 50 duro for strengths between 1500-6000 psi, a 60 duro for strengths between 2500-7000 psi, or a 70 duro for strengths between 4000-12000 psi, we have the right option for you.
Invest in the 2in Unbonded Capping Neoprene Pad Cap, 70 Durometer and improve the accuracy and reliability of your compression testing. With its durability, ease of use, and compliance with industry standards, this product is a valuable addition to any concrete testing toolkit.
