Cylinder Moulds at PCTE

PCTE has been selling test equipment in Australia since 2004 and has extensive experience in the measurement and testing of construction materials. Our focus is providing the right tools for the job. We are adept problem solvers, withUTCM 0095 the ability to advise our customers on the possible testing avenues available for your specific application. 

We recently designed an innovative 100mm diameter Concrete Cylinder Mould.  It has been manufactured from steel and complies to the AS standard. It is a split mould with a clamp attached lid and a galvanized base plate.  The design is extremely durable, corrosion-resistant and simple to clean.

The main improvement that we have made to the design is the joint. 

The classic design is popular as they are easy to clean. However, the ends get misaligned and you get a seam on the cylinder it also results in deformation of shape as the cylinder moulds age (i.e. the ends don’t meet). Our current design allows the tongue and groove to lock the mould in place which helps with alignment, but the groove collects material making it hard to clean. Additionally, there is a seam for this method.

  • New Improvised design uses curved asymmetrical triangles for the joint.
  • As you close the mould they will tighten and come into alignment with no seam.
  • They will remain in alignment making the design durable
  • The cylinder moulds have a sprung top lid design with a fully galvanised base plate.

 

Result

The result is an innovative design which addresses alignment, is easy to clean and extremely durable.
