Distance Pieces for Adjusting Vertical Daylight
Steel distant pieces are used to reduce the vertical daylight of automatic compression machines. These will vary depending on the size the specimens tested and considering that, in general, the maximum piston travel is 50 mm.
Distance pieces are also available with a threaded centering pin and are identified by the suffix /P (e.g. C9080/P).
These threaded distance pieces features are recommended for testing high strength and explosive failures. When using such distance pieces, the compression machine / frame should also be upgraded (Please refer to the accessories section for more details).
Distance pieces are available in three different series:
Standard series 50-C908x
For concrete compression machines/frames when testing normal strength concrete (NSC).
These distance pieces are fitted with a centering central pin for stacking up. They are simply laid on the piston while the bottom compression platen of the compression machine/frame is placed on top of the distance pieces.
Series 50-C9080/xx
For concrete compression machines/frames when testing high performance concrete (HPC), rocks, clay blocks and in general materials having brittle failure.
These distance pieces are fitted with a centering central pin for stacking up. They are simply laid on the piston or fixed by 2 screws while the bottom compression platen of the compression machine/frame is placed on top of the distance pieces or fixed by 2 steel plates model 50-C9080/F (see Accessories).
Series 65-L1000/xx
For cement compression machines/frames.
These distance pieces are fitted with a centering central pin for stacking up. They are simply laid on the piston while the bottom compression platen of the compression machine/frame is placed on top of the distance pieces.
