Made of steel. Used to reduce the vertical daylight of the compression machine depending on the size of the specimen and considering that, in general, the maximum piston travel is 50 mm. The table in Technical Specifications is a suitable application guide to help you in the selection of required distance pieces.
Distance pieces are available in three different series:
Standard series 50-C908x
This series is suggested for concrete compression machines/frames when testing normal strength concrete (NSC). This series is fitted with a centering central pin for simple stacking up of distance pieces one on top of the other. The bottom compression platen of the compression machine/frame is simply laid on the distance pieces. Distance pieces are simply laid on the piston.
Series 50-C9080/xx
This series is suggested for concrete compression machines/frames when testing high performance concrete (HPC), rocks, clay blocks and in general materials having brittle failure. This series is fitted with both a centering central pin for simple stacking up of distance pieces one on top of the other and two screws for solid fixing. The bottom compression platen of the compression machine/frame can be simply laid on the distance pieces or fixed by 2 steel plates model 50-C9080/F (see Accessories). Distance pieces can be simply laid on the piston or fixed by 2 screws.
Series 65-L1000/xx
This series is suggested for cement compression machines/frames. This series is fitted with a centering central pin for simple stacking up of distance pieces one on top of the other. The bottom compression platen of the compression machine/frame is simply laid on the distance pieces. Distance pieces are simply laid on the piston.
