Digital Point Load Tester
Product Code : JA-CL-8857
The digital point load tester measures the strength index of rock specimens in the field or in the laboratory, loading core specimens up to 101.6 mm (4 inch) diameter between two cone-shaped points. A manual hydraulic jack on the load frame applies up to 56 kN, read on an electric load cell with a digital display at 0.001 kN resolution (SKU JA-CL-8857).
