Asphalt Float Tester for Material Consistency
This asphalt float tester determines the consistency of asphalt materials. It measures the time it takes for a plug of asphalt to sink a specified distance in water at a controlled temperature.



Technical Specifications
Product Overview
Precision Asphalt Consistency Analysis
The Asphalt Float Tester is a specialized laboratory instrument engineered to determine the consistency of residue from slowly solidifying liquid petroleum asphalt distillation and coal pitch. By measuring the time it takes for a sample to soften and break under controlled water bath conditions, this device provides critical data on material flow characteristics. It also functions as a versatile constant temperature bath, offering high accuracy for demanding highway engineering quality control requirements.
