  • Product Code: SL086
Load ring penetrometer

Simple and light instrument for measuring static penetration resistance.

The thrust force is provided directly by the operator who, by pushing on the T handle, forces the cone into the soil.

The encountered resistance is measured on the fitted load ring. 

Testing is only possible in soils with good consistency and for short depths.
