50mm Mortar Cube Compression Device Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : TVT-CMTE-10426
The 50mm Mortar Cube Compression Device from Tvet Equipments is a compact steel jig that adapts a compatible compression testing machine to test 50 x 50 x 50 mm mortar cube specimens accurately and consistently.
How It Works
The mortar cube specimen is centred within the device's platen assembly, which is positioned between the testing machine's main compression platens. The jig ensures the load from the machine's ram is applied squarely and centrally onto the small 50 mm cube face, avoiding eccentric loading that could distort strength results, and the assembly is loaded to failure to record the specimen's compressive strength.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What standard governs 50mm mortar cube testing?
ASTM C109 (Standard Test Method for Compressive Strength of Hydraulic Cement Mortars) specifies the 50 mm cube size and test procedure this device supports.
Q2. Why is a dedicated device needed for a small cube?
A dedicated jig ensures the load from a general-purpose compression machine is applied squarely and centrally on the small 50 mm cube face, avoiding eccentric loading that could otherwise distort strength results.
Q3. What mould is used to cast the test cubes?
Tvet Equipments' Mortar Three Gang Mould is available in a 50 x 50 x 50 mm cube option matching this device's specimen size.
