Tenders Description & Specification for Point Load Index Tester
Point Load Index Tester
Specification:
Point Load Index tester, a rock testing instrument for determining the
Diametrical Point Load Strength Index of rock cores and Irregular Lumps
which may be tested without any treatment. The Point Load Test is
primarily as index Test for strength classified of rock materials. This
instrument is mainly intended for field measurements on rocks specimen,
but it can be used in the laboratory. The results of the test may also
be used to predict the uniaxial compressive strength of rock from
correlations. The apparatus is light and portable and can be used in the
laboratory as well as in the field.
Features:
• Equipment is light and portable
• Rock core specimens can be tested without any preparation
• The instrument can be used in the laboratory as well as at the drilling site
• The results of the test may also be used to predict the uniaxial compressive strength of rock.
• With this instrument, a wide range of core size can be tested
• The frame has adequate adjustments to align perfectly the loading
axis passing through the centre of the bearing plates and loading
platens at the position of the ram of the hydraulic jack
The equipment comprised the followings:
A : Loading Frame, fitted with Hydraulic Jack, hand operated, capacity 100 KN (10,000 kgf)
B : Load Gauge, 25KN (2,500 kgf) to read upto 0.25KN (25kgf)
C : Load Gauge, 100KN (10,000 kgf) to read upto 0.50KN (50kgf)
D : Conical Loading Platens
E : Diaphragm Bolt
