Chapman Flask
Product Code : JA-M-8888
The Chapman Flask (SKU JA-M-8888) determines the approximate apparent specific gravity of fine aggregate, the approximate percentage of voids in inundated fine aggregate and its surface moisture. Water is added to the 200 ml mark, a weighed sample of sand is introduced, and the rise to the upper graduations gives the volume displaced. The Chapman flask 450 ml is used in concrete technology and building materials laboratories. It is made by JaincoLab.
Specifications of the Chapman flask 450 ml
The flask has a total capacity of 450 ml, is graduated at 200 ml between the bulbs and from 375 to 450 ml in 1 ml divisions above the second bulb.
