Product Description

(Ring& Ball Apparatus)

This apparatus ismeant for determination of softening point of Bituminious materials accordingto IP 58 and IS 1205-1958. Softening point is that temperature at which thespecimen under test becomes soft enough to allow a steel ball of specificdimension to fall a required distance under test condition The apparatus consists of glass beaker, ringstand two steel balls with ring and ball guides & hand stirrer.

Precisely Engineered for Bitumen Analysis

This apparatus combines durability and accuracy, crafted from a corrosion-resistant mild steel frame and equipped with brass rings. Its reliable electric immersion heater and borosilicate glass beaker withstand high testing temperatures and deliver consistent results, making it an essential for evaluating the softening point of bituminous materials.

Reliable Performance with User-Controlled Operation

Designed for manual operation, the apparatus incorporates a manual agitation rod for uniform heating and instant observation. With a capacity for two standard-size specimens and universal adaptability for standard ring sizes, it offers flexibility and ease in routine laboratory testing.

Comprehensive Safety and Compliance Features

Equipped with heat-resistant handles and a stable bench-top build, this softening point apparatus ensures safe use under high temperatures. Strict adherence to ASTM, IP, and IS standards guarantees reliable and repeatable outcomes for quality assurance in material testing.

FAQ's of Softening Point Apparatus:

Q: How is the softening point test performed using this apparatus?

A: To perform the test, place the bitumen sample into the brass rings, position the steel balls on top using the centring guide, and assemble the apparatus in the supplied borosilicate beaker. Fill with water or suitable liquid, insert the thermometer, and heat gradually using the electric immersion heater while stirring manually. Observe and record the temperature at which the bitumen softens and the ball passes through.

Q: What is the benefit of using a borosilicate glass beaker in this equipment?

A: A borosilicate glass beaker offers excellent thermal resistance and minimizes reactions with chemicals, ensuring consistent temperature conditions and minimising contamination. Its transparency also aids accurate monitoring of the test process.

Q: When should I use this softening point apparatus?

A: This apparatus is ideal when determining the consistent softening point of bitumen, as required in quality control, research, or conformance to international testing standards such as ASTM D36, IP 58, and IS:1205.

Q: Where can this apparatus be installed or used?

A: This bench-top device is designed for laboratory settings, suitable for bitumen testing laboratories in research, manufacturing, or quality control facilities.

Q: What safety measures are integrated into this equipment?

A: Safety features include heat-resistant handles for safe handling of hot components, a stable base to prevent tipping, and durable construction materials that ensure operator protection throughout the testing process.

Q: How many specimens can be tested simultaneously?

A: The apparatus accommodates two specimens at a time, following standard ring sizes, allowing for comparative testing and efficient workflow.

Q: What accessories are provided with the softening point apparatus?

A: It comes supplied with a borosilicate glass beaker, two steel balls, a ring holder, centring guide, brass rings, thermometer, and a support frame-everything needed to conduct softening point tests as per the relevant standards.
