Product Description - Slake Durability Apparatus

  • ZI 6012 Plake durability apparatus, 220-240 v 50 hz
  • ZI 6012-A Pair of mesh drums for ZI 6012

This Slake Durability Apparatus has been developed to assess the deterioration of rock sover a period of time when subjected to water immersion. Slake durability is a simulated weathering test to determine abrasion resistance during wetting and drying cycles of shale and similar soft rocks as used in embankments and other construction-related applications. Samples are alternately tumbled in mesh drums through a water medium and oven-dried for two cycles. The percent loss of mass is referred to as the slake durability index

Other Details of  Slake Durability Apparatus:

    • The ZI 6012 slake durability apparatus consists of a motorized drive unit which is mounted on a base plate and which can rotate two or four drums at a speed of 20 r.p.m.
    • The tank assemblies are filled with water to a level 20mm below the drum axis.
    • The test drums are manufactured from 2.00 mm mesh, 140 mm dia. X 100 mm long.

Standards of  Slake Durability Apparatus: ASTM D 4644
