Product Description
With our sustained efforts & experience manpower, we have been able to provide MS Cube Mould. This mould can be used for testing concrete cylinder s compressive strength tests. Owing to features like durability, optimum finish and flawlessness, the offered MS Cube Mould is exceptionally valued by our precious customers. Our offered mould split vertically into two parts. This mould is available from us in various specifications at affordable price. Also, in this the base plate and top plate are machined flat to 0.03mm.
Engineered for High Accuracy and DurabilityBuilt from premium mild steel with a detachable heavy duty cast iron base, this cube mould ensures long-lasting performance and dimensional precision. The machined, anti-rust coated/painted surface not only safeguards against corrosion but also provides a smooth and clean finish to every specimen. Its design guarantees stability during the casting and curing process, essential for reliable testing.
Meets International Testing StandardsThis mould adheres strictly to globally recognized standards such as IS:10086, BS:1881, and ASTM C109, ensuring compatibility and credibility in professional laboratory environments. Its robust and accurate build allows it to be used confidently for official quality assessments and compliance testing in civil engineering and construction projects.
Versatile and User-Friendly DesignThe 3-part bolted construction, coupled with a split mould and wing nut fasteners, allows easy assembly, dismantling, and demoulding. With the capacity to cast three 150 mm cubes at once, this mould saves time and streamlines the testing process. Its manual control and room temperature operation make it an accessible choice for labs large and small.
FAQs of MS Cube Mould:
Q: How is the MS Cube Mould used in concrete compressive strength testing?
A: To use the MS Cube Mould, concrete is poured into each of the three 150 mm compartments, then compacted and levelled. Once set, the split mould design with wing nut fasteners allows easy removal of the cured cubes, which can then be tested for compressive strength as per IS:10086, BS:1881, or ASTM C109 standards.
Q: What makes this cube mould suitable for repeated use in laboratories?
A: This mould is constructed from mild steel with a durable, anti-rust coating and features a detachable cast iron base plate. Its robust build and precision machining (tolerance 0.2 mm) ensure it remains reusable and maintains dimensional accuracy after multiple uses, even in demanding laboratory settings.
Q: When should I choose a 3-part split mould with wing nut fasteners?
A: A 3-part split mould with wing nut fasteners is ideal when you need quick assembly, demoulding, and cleaning between batches. This design prevents specimen damage and speeds up the process, making it highly practical for frequent testing or when handling multiple samples in a single session.
Q: Where can this cube mould be used?
A: This cube mould is suited for civil engineering and building material laboratories, quality control departments, construction sites, and research institutions. It is designed for tabletop/laboratory mounting, offering flexibility across various professional environments.
Q: What is the benefit of the moulds adherence to IS, BS, and ASTM standards?
A: Complying with IS:10086, BS:1881, and ASTM C109 standards ensures the mould produces valid specimens for internationally accepted compressive strength tests. This guarantees consistency, reliability, and suitability for regulatory and quality assurance purposes.
Q: How does the anti-rust coating and machined finish enhance performance?
A: The anti-rust coating prevents corrosion, prolonging the moulds lifespan, while the high-precision machined finish ensures smooth surfaces and accurate specimen dimensions. Together, these features maintain the moulds performance and facilitate easy specimen release.
