The term Asphalt is simply one of two generic names used to classify or describe bituminous mixtures; the other being Macadam. In the USA the term Asphalt denotes what in the UK is known as Bitumen.Within these two broad groups lie an almost infinite number of mixtures which can be specified to suit particular engineering requirements. Our latest testing equipment has therefore been developed to enable construction engineers and laboratory staff to carry out a wide range of industry standard tests quickly, simply and reliably.

Poor coating of the aggregate due to low temperatures during the mixing process will have a major effect on subsequent test results.Sample MixersA regular laboratory requirement is the mixing of samples with water and/or other constituents to provide a homogeneous mixture prior to subsequent testing. The following range of mixers provide an efficient means of mixing samples.Bench-Mounting Mixer 4.7 Litre Capacity complete with Bowl, Beater & WhiskProduct Code: 23-6191/01, 23-6191/06Mixer shown with Isomantle Electric Heater accessory.Product Standards:BS 598-107, BS 1377-1, BS 1924-1, EN 12697-35The mixer has three electrically switched mixing speeds which obviates the need to switch off during speed selection.
