Sand Pouring Cylinder Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : EL-STE-3409
Jlab Export is a leading Sand Pouring Cylinder Manufacturer,and suppliers in India
Sand Pouring Cylinder (code EL-STE-3409) is the apparatus for the sand replacement test, which finds the dry density of soil in place by filling a dug hole with sand of known density. Each set has the cylinder with its conical funnel and shutter, a calibrating container and a metal tray, in a small size for fine and medium grained soils and a large size that also handles coarse grained soils. Both sizes are made by JLab in Ambala, India.

Running the Sand Replacement Test
The tray is laid on the levelled ground and a hole is dug through its centre opening; all the soil removed is weighed and a sample is kept for its water content. The filled cylinder is then set over the hole and the shutter opened, and sand runs out until the hole and the cone below the shutter are full. The mass of sand that ran into the hole, divided by the bulk density of the sand, gives the volume of the hole; the mass of soil dug out over that volume gives its bulk density, which the water content converts to dry density.
Calibrating the Sand
Before field use, the sand is run from the cylinder into the calibrating container, whose volume is known, and weighed to find its bulk density. A pour onto a flat surface gives the mass of sand that fills the cone, which is subtracted from each field reading. Clean, dry, uniformly graded sand is used so that it runs at a steady density.
Other Soil Compaction and Grading Equipment
- Compaction Mould — 100 mm mould for the laboratory moisture-density test.
- Test Sieves — spun brass sieves with lid and receiver for grading sand and soil.
- Rammer — engine-driven rammer for compacting soil on site.
The Soil Testing Equipment category, under Survey Equipment, has more field and laboratory soil apparatus.
