Description

Product Description
Aggregates which are flaky and/or elongated will often lower the workability
of a concrete mix and may also affect long term durability. In bituminous
mixtures, flaky aggregates make for a harsh mix and may also crack and break
up during compacting by rolling. The flakiness of aggregates is determined by
measuring the thickness of individual particles. Aimil offers Thickness Gauge
and Length Gauge with ISI Certification Mark as per IS: 2386 (Part 1) to check
flakiness index and elongation index of the aggregate respectively.
Thickness Gauge Constructed from heavy gauge sheet steel with ISI Certification Mark,
conforming to IS: 2386.
Length Gauge Constructed from steel, mounted on a hardwood base, with ISI Certification
Mark, conforming to IS: 2386.
