ASTM D4212 SHELL Viscosity Flow Cups

ASTM D4212 SHELL Viscosity Flow Cups for accurate fluid viscosity measurement. Available in hole sizes from 1.8 mm to 5.8 mm, covering viscosities from 2 cst to 1300 cst. Ideal for paints, coatings, and laboratory applications.

The ASTM D4212 SHELL Viscosity Flow Cups are designed according to the ASTM D4212 standard for precise viscosity measurement of low to medium viscosity liquids, particularly useful for paints, coatings, varnishes, and other similar materials. These cups are ideal for evaluating the flow time of fluids through a standardized orifice, which is then used to calculate the viscosity.

With a range of hole diameters from 1.8 mm to 5.8 mm, these cups cover viscosity values from 2 cst to 1300 cst, offering flexibility for a wide range of fluid types. The flow time of the fluid through the orifice is recorded, typically ranging from 20 to 80 seconds, and the viscosity is determined from this data.

The SHELL Viscosity Flow Cups are essential for use in laboratories and quality control for industries like coatings, inks, and other fluid-based materials. Their accuracy and conformance to ASTM standards make them a trusted choice for viscosity measurement.
