Static Compactor and Extruder

The S-242 Static Compactor and Extruder is designed to compact 2.8 in diam by 5.6 in test specimens in accordance with AASHTO Method T-307. (A 4 in model is available upon request). The device allows the operator to compact the sample in five equal lifts by both monitoring the length of the sample and the load applied to the sample. The supplied spacers prevent over compaction of the sample. Once the sample is compacted, the hydraulic piston is used to extrude the sample.

Key features include:

  • Hydraulic piston that develops 30,000 lbf of thrust and up to 14 in piston travel
  • Tripod stand positions sample at proper working height
  • Built-in work surface provides ease of mold removal and insertion

Equipped with 1 mold, 4 spacers, 2 compaction pistons, 1 extruding piston and 1 straight edge.

Applicable Standards:
AASHTO T-307
