Insitu Vane Shear Apparatus

Insitu Vane Shear Apparatus

The apparatus is suitable for testing at the bottom of a bore hole.

This consists of Torque Applicator mounted on a detachable stand. By applying torque, deformation of torque ring can be read on a dial gauge. From the calibration curve, deformation can be converted into torque in Kg. Cm.

ii) Vane 37.5 mm x 75 mm high complete with vane rod and one dummy rod – 1 set.
iii) Vane 50 mm dia x 100 mm high, complete with vane rod and one dummy rod.
iv) Extension rods one meter long threaded, quick coupling type. 25 Nos.
v) Extension rods half meter long threaded, quick coupling type 10 Nos.
vi) Spikes – 4 Nos.
