Ideal for geo technicians, geologists and agronomists. 

It consists of the Pocket penetrometer and of the Field inspection pocket vane tester.

Heavy duty model, all stainless steel construction, three interchangeable tips:

6.35 mm for medium and soft soil,

4.5 mm dia. for very hard soil,

8.98 mm for soft soil. Supplied complete with plastic case.

Field surface and deeper measures.

The height/diameter ratio of all vanes is 2. During operation the vane is driven for 5-6 cm into the soil and then turned with the handle. Deep measures (i.e. on the top of undisturbed samples) can be obtained using the extension rod.

Especially designed to measure the undrained shear strength (CU) of cohesive soils, consists of a cylindrical body with a torsional spring and three interchangeable vanes of different sizes used depending upon the expected strength of the soil. 

The two units are contained in a practical carrying case.
