Cone Penetrometer - static

Unmatched for accuracy, reliability & ease of  use. Pressure gauge with 0-70 kg/cm is scaled for direct reading of cone stress, eliminating proving ring conversions. Dual rod design eliminates soil friction factor. High strength aluminum and steel construction.

Standard models include a 60° cone with area of 1.5 cm max., a starter rod assembly rated at 250 lbf axial force max., and a pressure gauge.

FEATURES
Used in fine-grained, soft soils at shallow foundation and pavement subgrades to depths of 30 feet (9.14m) to evaluate for:
  • consistency
  • level of compaction
  • Bearing capacity
