SPARE 60 DEG. CONE FOR DCP - SL970/4

Product code: SL970/4

Category: Miscellaneous Equipment and Hardware

For Use With Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP Kit) - SL970 The Spare 60° Cone (FN1008) is a replaceable penetration tip designed for use with the SL970 Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) Kit. It is fitted to the lower end of the penetration rod and is responsible for transferring impact energy into the soil during testing. The cone is manufactured to precise geometry to ensure consistent and repeatable soil strength measurements in accordance with standard DCP testing methods. Key Features Precision-machined 60° cone angle for standardized testing Durable hardened steel construction for extended service life Replaceable component to maintain test accuracy and reduce downtime Compatible with SL970 DCP kits Designed for consistent penetration resistance measurements Easy to install and remove in the field Technical Specifications Cone angle: 60° Material: Hardened steel Compatibility: SL970 Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP Kit) Function: Soil penetration tip for DCP testing Standard compliance: Typically aligned with DCP-related standards Available Options Standard 60° cone Replacement rods and extension sections Complete DCP kits (SL970) Applications In-situ soil strength assessment Compaction verification Road and pavement subgrade evaluation Geotechnical site investigations Construction quality control Field testing in remote or rapid assessment scenarios Delivery & Lead Time Standard items available from stock Typical delivery: 2–5 working days (UK) Express shipping available on request (additional charges may apply) International delivery options available Compliance & Quality Manufactured under quality-controlled processes Designed to meet relevant DCP testing standards Ensures repeatability and reliability in field testing Suitable for professional geotechnical and civil engineering use Frequently Asked Questions Q: When should the cone be replaced? A: The cone should be replaced when visible wear, deformation, or rounding of the tip occurs, as this can affect test accuracy. Q: Is this cone compatible with other DCP kits? A: It is designed for the SL970 DCP kit but may be compatible with similar systems depending on thread and rod specifications. Q: Why is the 60° angle important? A: The 60° cone angle is a standard geometry that ensures consistent penetration resistance readings across tests. Q: Can I reuse a worn cone? A: Continued use of a worn cone is not recommended, as it can lead to inaccurate soil strength results. Q: Does it require calibration? A: The cone itself does not require calibration, but it must be in good condition to ensure valid test results. Request a Quote Ready to order or need more information?
