DUCTILOMETER

 

 

Used to determine the bituminous ductility, that is to say, the distance to which a briquette of molten bitumen can be extended under controlled conditions, before its breaking. The Ductilometer basically consists of a moving carriage travelling along
guide ways. The carriage is driven by an electrical motor, inside a large tank which is fitted with digital thermostat, immersion electric heater, cooling coil for cold water circulation and pump unit. This model works in an automatic way at a speed of 50 mm/min. and its max. stroke is 1500 mm. The tank and the external frame are all made from stainless steel with fibreglass insulation. Water bath temperature is maintaned constant at 25°C ± 0,5°C. by a digital thermoregulator. The unit is equipped of a dual safety thermostat to prevent accidental over-temperatures.
Max. traction force: 300 N, accuracy: ± 0,1 N
The ductilometer can accept up to 3 specimens simultaneously.
Supplied complete “except” for the briquette mould and base plate that must be ordered separately (see accessories).
