Flakiness Index Gauge

About Flakiness Index Gauge

The Flakiness Index Gauge is a precision testing instrument used for determining the flakiness index of aggregates in civil engineering and road construction laboratories. It is widely used to evaluate the shape characteristics of coarse aggregates, ensuring suitability for use in concrete and bituminous works.

This gauge is designed with accurately machined slots of standard dimensions through which aggregate particles are passed. Particles that pass through the specified slots are classified as flaky, and the percentage of such particles indicates the flakiness index of the sample.

Manufactured from high-quality, wear-resistant metal, the Flakiness Index Gauge ensures durability, accuracy, and long service life even under frequent laboratory use. It is simple to operate and provides quick and reliable results.

Key Features:

• Precisely machined slots for accurate testing
• Made from high-quality wear-resistant metal
• Simple and quick testing procedure
• Durable and long-lasting construction
• Ensures reliable and repeatable results
• Suitable for routine laboratory use

Applications:

• Highway and road construction laboratories
• Civil engineering testing labs
• Construction material quality control
• Aggregate grading and analysis
• Infrastructure development projects

Working Principle:

Aggregate particles are passed through standardized slot openings. The percentage of particles that pass through indicates the flakiness index, which helps assess the shape and quality of aggregates for construction use.
