Density Basket
The Density Basket, manufactured as per IS: 2386 Part I, is a precision testing apparatus used to determine the specific gravity and water absorption of coarse aggregate. This high-quality basket plays a crucial role in aggregate testing for construction, roadwork, and concrete mix design applications.
Constructed from durable steel wire mesh, the density basket is designed with an approximate size of 20 cm diameter × 20 cm height and fitted with a strong carrying handle for easy lifting during immersion tests. The mesh structure ensures proper water flow and accurate test results while maintaining strength and stability throughout use.
This Density Basket is widely used in laboratories and material testing facilities for ensuring the quality and performance of aggregates according to standard Indian testing methods.
