DIGITAL POINT LOAD APPARATUS

The point tester is used to measure rock strength in the field or in the laboratory.

A load frame, hydraulic jack and digital display are mounted on the base of a carrying case.

With this point load tester, samples up to 4” (101.6mm) diameter can be tested on 2 conical points.

A graduated scale indicates distance between conical points and is also used to measure specimen diameter.

Applied load is digitally displayed to 0.001Kn ; accuracy is ±1%; range is 0 to 56Kn. Display shows maximum load and will also read in lb and tons.
