Test Bar Moulds
Product Code : JA-M-8894
The Test Bar Moulds (SKU JA-M-8894) cast mortar bars and concrete prisms for length-change measurements. Contact points embedded at each end give a 254 mm (10 inch) gauge length between their inner ends, so the hardened bar can be read on a length comparator. These test bar moulds are made of plated steel in two versions: a two-gang mould for 25.4 x 25.4 x 254 mm bars and a single mould for 101.6 x 101.6 x 254 mm prisms. They are made by JaincoLab.
Specifications
Both versions are plated steel with a 254 mm gauge length; net weights are listed as 9.1 kg and 10 kg, and the contact points measure 6.3 mm diameter by 19 mm long, supplied in packs of 100.

Applications of the test bar moulds
Bars cast with fixed contact points let small changes in length be measured over weeks of storage, the basis of shrinkage and expansion tests.
- Drying shrinkage of concrete prisms
- Length change of mortar bars in storage
- Cement-aggregate reactivity tests
- Use with a length comparator in cement testing laboratories
