3in Unbonded Capping Neoprene Pad Cap, 70 Durometer
Sold individually. Two are required for compression testing of concrete cylinders. Choose 20 for one box.
3in (76.2mm) Neoprene Pads are available in 50, 60, or 70 durometers and used in compressive strength testing of 3in concrete cylinders. They are 0.5in (12.7mm) thick and meet durometer requirements of ASTM C1231 and AASHTO T 22. The 3in pads flow during compression to fill irregularities in cylinder ends and ensure load uniformity. The 3in Steel Retainer Set is sold separately and required to hold one pad at each end of the concrete cylinder. Two pads are required and each pad can be used for up to 100 tests.
The 3in, 70 Durometer Pads work well in testing concrete strengths from 4,000-7,000psi (28-50mPa). 70 durometer pads can be used for testing strengths up to 12,000psi with further qualification testing by user.
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.
Meets Test Methods:
AASHTO T22
ASTM C 1231

The 3in Unbonded Capping Neoprene Pad Cap, 70 Durometer is an essential component for compression testing of concrete cylinders. Sold individually, two of these pad caps are required for accurate testing. If you are in need of multiple pad caps, you can choose to purchase a box of 20.
These 3in (76.2mm) Neoprene Pads are available in three different durometers: 50, 60, and 70. They are specifically designed for compressive strength testing of 3in concrete cylinders. With a thickness of 0.5in (12.7mm), they meet the durometer requirements of ASTM C1231 and AASHTO T 22. During compression, these pads flow to fill irregularities in the cylinder ends, ensuring load uniformity.
To hold one pad cap at each end of the concrete cylinder, the 3in Steel Retainer Set is required. Please note that the steel retainer set is sold separately and each pad cap can be used for up to 100 tests.
The 3in, 70 Durometer Pads work effectively in testing concrete strengths ranging from 4,000 to 7,000psi (28-50mPa). They can also be used for testing strengths up to 12,000psi with further qualification testing by the user.
It is worth mentioning that compression pads with different hardnesses are available as well. The 50 durometer pads are suitable for design strengths of 1500 to 6000 psi, the 60 durometer pads are ideal for design strengths of 2500 to 7000 psi, and the 70 durometer pads can handle design strengths of 4000 to 12000 psi.
These pad caps meet the test methods of AASHTO T22 and ASTM C 1231. According to ASTM C1231, the pad can be reused for up to a maximum of 100 times, making it a cost-effective and efficient option for your compression testing needs.
