The AMS 400.84 Bulk Density Soil Sampling Kit W/Compact Slide Hammer is the ultimate tool for accurately sampling soil for laboratory studies and undisturbed core samples. This comprehensive kit includes everything you need to take interval specific core samples up to a depth of 3ft.
What sets this kit apart is the unique design of the AMS Core Sampler. Unlike standard core samplers that have a 1”+ gap between the tip and the sample liner, this sampler has a much shorter 5/16” gap. This design ensures a more representative core and reduces compaction as the soil enters the sampler. The core sampler cap also has a built-in waste barrel, providing 2” of relief to eliminate compaction from overdriving the sampler. With this innovative design, there is no need for loading multiple rings inside the sampler, preventing sample blow by and skewed calculations.
The kit includes a variety of augers to suit different sampling needs. The 2-1/2” open face auger, 2-3/4” regular soil bucket auger, and 2-3/4” planer auger are perfect for sampling the soil surface, auger holes, or profile pits. The extension rod allows you to reach greater depths, while the rubber-coated cross handle provides a comfortable grip during sampling.
As for the core samplers themselves, they are held to extremely tight tolerances to ensure accurate results. The sample rings are made from .062w stainless steel tubing, making them ideal for laboratory studies and undisturbed core samples. Each 2” x 2” stainless steel ring has a volume of 90.59 cubic centimeters, allowing you to calculate the bulk density of the soil sample using the weight of the sample liner.
To make your sampling experience more convenient, the kit includes essential accessories such as adjustable wrenches, auger cleanout tool, nylon cleaning brush, and impact absorbing hammer. Everything is neatly organized in the AMS deluxe carrying case with handles and wheels for easy portability.
With the AMS 400.84 Bulk Density Soil Sampling Kit W/Compact Slide Hammer, you can confidently take accurate and representative soil samples to analyze and understand the soil's natural condition. Its exclusive features, comprehensive components, and excellent build quality make it the go-to kit for professionals and researchers in soil science and geotechnical engineering.
