Vane Shear Test Kit

For operation in three sizes of pipe or casing. The Vane Shear Test Kit has everything needed to obtain fast, accurate “in-place” shear readings to depths of 10 feet. Two torque wrenches are included in the kit with a high and low range for shearing soft, cohesive materials or heavier clays. Designed to accept standard AW drill rods.

Vane Shear Test Kit with Calibrated Torque Head

For extreme accuracy and where extensive testing justifies additional equipment expense, the calibrated torque head is recommended. The high ratio geared head permits even angular rotation of the vane. Readings are shown on a precision force gauge that features a maximum reading hand for precise accuracy without guesswork! The torque arm has 3 positions for shearing soft, medium, or stiff soils. The base is divided into 10-degree intervals for ease in recording data. Designed to accept standard AW drill rods.
