The AMS 59010 Static Cone Penetrometer Complete is the perfect tool for evaluating the consistency, compaction, and bearing capacity of fine-grained and soft soils. This reliable and efficient device is specifically designed for use in fine-grained soils, particularly those that are soft, and can penetrate up to a depth of 30 feet.
Featuring a 60-degree vertex angled cone with an area of 1.5 cm squared, this penetrometer can accurately assess the behavior of soils in various conditions. For use in extremely soft soils, an optional cone with a larger area of 3 cm squared is also available. With its dual rod construction, the AMS 59010 isolates the cone resistance from shaft friction, ensuring accurate readings.
No need for conversions or additional equipment, as this product comes equipped with a pressure gauge ranging from 0 to 70 kg/cm squared. This pressure gauge directly displays the cone resistance, eliminating the hassle of using proving ring conversions. The gauge is marked in kg/cm squared for easy and precise measurements.
Constructed with durability in mind, the AMS 59010 is made from high-quality stainless steel and anodized aluminum materials. This ensures longevity and resistance to corrosion, making it a reliable tool for your evaluations.
The AMS 59010 Static Cone Penetrometer Complete includes a starter rod assembly designed to withstand a maximum axial force of 250 lbf (340 N*m), ensuring its robustness even in demanding applications. Additionally, it comes with clear and comprehensive operating instructions and a parts list for easy use and maintenance.
Trust the AMS 59010 Static Cone Penetrometer Complete to accurately evaluate the consistency, compaction, and bearing capacity of fine-grained and soft soils. Its superior design, durable materials, and comprehensive features make it the ideal solution for your soil assessment needs.
