Standards: BS 812-105.1

• The Thickness Gauge is utilized to assess the flakiness index of aggregate particles, identifying those with a thickness less than 0.6 times their mean sieve size.
• This evaluation is essential for determining the suitability of aggregates in construction applications, as flaky particles can adversely affect the strength and durability of concrete and asphalt mixtures.
• The gauge features seven precision-cut slots, each corresponding to specific sieve size ranges, facilitating accurate and efficient classification of aggregate samples.
• Constructed from heavy-gauge steel, the device ensures durability and compliance with BS 812-105.1 standards, providing reliable performance in laboratory settings.
