K-Slump Tester
Product Code : EL-CTLE-10313
K-Slump Tester (code EL-CTLE-10313) is a probe that checks, in place, how workable fresh concrete is and how well it has been compacted once it is in the forms, with results that correlate with the slump test. Its calibrated hollow tube is 20 mm in diameter, the tester is 300 mm long overall and weighs about 500 g, and it comes with a correlation chart and instructions.

What Is the K-Slump Tester Used For?
Checking workability in the forms shows the condition of the concrete where it has actually been placed, rather than in a sample taken to one side. The operator pushes the tester into the fresh concrete until the disc meets the surface and waits 60 seconds while concrete enters the calibrated hollow tube, then lowers the measuring rod onto the concrete inside and reads the K-slump from the scale. The correlation chart relates the reading to the slump test, and the same probe can be used in test moulds. The standard listed for it is ASTM C1362.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the K-Slump Tester measure?
It gives an in-place reading of how workable fresh concrete is and how far it has been compacted after placing in the forms, and the readings relate to the slump test.
How is a K-slump reading taken?
Once the probe has been pushed in as far as its disc and left for 60 seconds, the measuring rod is let down onto the concrete and the K-slump value is taken straight from the scale.
Can the tester be used in test moulds as well as on site?
Yes. It can be used for in-situ measurements in placed concrete, and also inside test moulds and forms.
How do K-slump readings relate to the slump test?
The results can be correlated against the standard slump test, and a correlation chart is included with the instructions for converting readings.
What are the size and weight of the K-slump tester?
The tester has a total length of 300 mm and a calibrated hollow tube of 20 mm diameter, and it weighs approximately 500 g.
Which standard is the K-Slump Tester listed under?
The standard listed for the K-Slump Tester is ASTM C1362, and it is used directly in placed fresh concrete.
