Shelby Tube Permeameter
Product Options
Shelby Tube Permeameter
Supports the following standards: ASTM D5856
The Shelby tube permeameter allows you to perform permeability tests within a Shelby tube without removing the sample. Ideal for cohesion-less materials and sands. It is suggested that the specimen be ejected at test conclusion and examined for voids or large aggregate, which possibly could affect the test results. Two sets of end caps fit over a Shelby tube liner up to 6" long. End caps each contain valve to control flow of permeants through the specimen, along with a porous stone to prevent material from flowing into and clogging the valve. End caps are anodized aluminum. Includes o-rings, connecting rods, clamping knobs, and tubing. Shelby tube not included.
