Product Description

Outfitted with a modern infrastructure, we are the most prominent manufacturer, exporter and supplier of a wide array of Softening Point Apparatus. The offered apparatus is manufactured using optimum quality raw material and advanced technology under the guidance of our experts. Provided apparatus is broadly used to determine softening point of bituminous material according to IP 58 and IS 1205. Our valuable clients can avail this Softening Point Apparatus as per exact application requirement.

Features:

High performance

Robust construction
Easy operations
Flawless finish


Hand Operated	Also called Softening Point Apparatus. Softening point is that temperature at which the specimen under test becomes soft enough to allow a steel ball of specific dimension to fall a required distance under test condition. The apparatus consists of Glass beaker of heat resistant glass having internal diameter of 8.5 cm X 12 cm depth (approximately), two steel balls each of 9.5mm diameter, two tapered brass rings, two ball guides, ring stand and a hand stirrer.

Electrically Operated	Same as above but Electrically Operated.

	(without thermometer) complete with one 1000 mililiter flask and one 100 mililiter crow receiver.

FAQ's of Softening Point Apparatus (Ring & Ball Apparatus):

Q: How does the Ring & Ball Apparatus determine the softening point of materials?

A: The apparatus measures the temperature at which a sample of bitumen, wax, or resin softens enough for a steel ball to fall a specified distance through the material, following standardized procedures outlined in IS:1205, ASTM D36, and IP 58.

Q: What heating media should be used for different temperature ranges during the test?

A: Use water as the heating medium up to 80C, and switch to glycerin for temperatures above 80C. This ensures appropriate heat transfer and accurate results across the measurement range of 30C to 120C.

Q: When is the Softening Point Apparatus most commonly used?

A: This apparatus is primarily used when testing the softening point of bituminous materials, waxes, and resins in laboratory environments for research, quality assurance, and compliance assessments.

Q: Where is this Ring & Ball Apparatus ideally operated?

A: It is best suited for laboratory settings, including research facilities, quality control labs, and industrial testing centers, due to its manual operation and reliable analog measurements.

Q: What is the process for conducting a test with this apparatus?

A: To conduct a test, place the samples in the brass rings and the steel balls on top. Fill the beaker with the recommended heating medium, set the thermometer, and gradually heat the system while stirring. The temperature at which the balls drop is recorded as the softening point.

Q: What are the main benefits of using this apparatus?

A: Users benefit from high accuracy (0.5C), corrosion-resistant construction, manual ease-of-operation, and compliance with international testing standards, ensuring reliable and repeatable results.

Q: Is this apparatus suitable for testing other materials apart from bitumen?

A: Yes, the Ring & Ball Apparatus can also test the softening points of waxes and resins, making it versatile for a range of laboratory material analyses.
