Flakiness Sieve Set

About Flakiness Sieve Set

Specification:

BS 812-105.1
Aggregate particles are considered as flaky when their thickness is less than 0.6 of their mean sieve size. Aggregate to be classified is separated into seven sieve fractions from 6.3 to 63 mm and each fraction is examined separately. The dimensions of each sieve comply with the relevant international standard, manufactured from heavy gauge steel sheet and coated with electrostatic paint.

The accuracy of the slot size is better than 0.1 mm.

Flakiness index sieve set consists of 7 sieves.
For sample preparations 6.3, 10, 14, 20, 28, 37.5, 50 and 63 mm aperture sizes test sieves should be ordered seperately.

Engineered for Reliable Performance

Each Flakiness Sieve Set features precisely machined slots and a high-quality steel construction (approx. 60 HRC hardness) that ensures long-lasting usage in demanding laboratory or field conditions. The polished or coated finish resists corrosion for sustained accuracy and physique, allowing repeated use without compromising measurement integrity. Stackable trays and a portable design deliver easy handling and storage.


Wide Test Range and Compliance

The sieve slots cover a standardized aperture range (6.3mm to 50mm), making the set suitable for determining the flakiness index of aggregate specimens in line with IS: 2386 Part I specifications. The resolution and accuracy of the slots facilitate instant manual sorting and reliable test outcomes, whether in a laboratory or onsite aggregate assessment.


Ease of Use and Maintenance

Manual operation allows effortless control and sorting during the testing process. Aggregates can be quickly washed and the slots cleaned due to the set's washable construction. Accessories such as a carrying case add further convenience for transportation, making this equipment a favorite for manufacturers, suppliers, and testing professionals.
