Durability Index Agitator

Durability Index measures the relative resistance of aggregates to producing clay-like fines when mechanically agitated in a special washing vessel. The resulting fines material is evaluated using one of our Sand Equivalent Test Sets, purchased separately.

The versatile Gilson Durability Index Agitator runs at 285cpm, and may also be used as a sieve shaker for up to six full-height 8in or 200mm diameter sieves and pan. Holes are provided for securing flanges to the floor or a benchtop.

An 8x9.5in (203x241mm),Dia.xH Stainless Steel Washing Vessel (sold separately) is required to perform the Durability Index test.

SS-18F runs on 230V/50Hz and is shipped without an electrical plug.
