Plastic Moulds Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : TVT-CTE-10482
Plastic Moulds covers Tvet Equipments' range of heavy-duty ABS plastic concrete specimen moulds — cube, cylinder, and split/peel-open cylinder types — offering a lighter, lower-cost alternative to cast-iron or mild-steel moulds.
How It Works
Fresh concrete is placed and compacted into the ABS plastic mould, which is lighter and easier to handle than metal moulds of the same size, and (for the split/peel-open cylinder types) opens along a moulded seam to release the specimen without needing to be knocked or pressed out, reducing the risk of edge damage during demoulding.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does "split-type" cylinder mould mean?
It is a plastic cylinder mould that opens along a moulded seam to release the cast specimen, rather than needing the specimen to be pressed or knocked out of a rigid one-piece body.
Why choose ABS plastic moulds over metal moulds?
ABS plastic moulds are significantly lighter (well under 2kg vs several kg for metal equivalents) and generally lower cost, though metal moulds are typically more rigid and longer-lasting under heavy repeated use.
What is the difference between the extruded-type and L-Shape 150mm cube mould?
Both cast the same 150mm cube; the extruded type is a slightly smaller-footprint, lighter one-piece body, while the L-Shape version uses a split-frame design similar to the cast-iron L-Shape moulds, at a marginally larger footprint and weight.
