Soil Penetrometers
Proctor Needles (Spring Type)
Specification:
The instrument consists of a needle attached to a spring loaded plunger, the stem of which is calibrated to read 0 to 40 kg division. Long stem is graduated at every 12.5mm to read depth of penetration and for use with needles of larger areas . The small penetration stem is also graduation in 12.5mm division and is used with needles of smaller areas. Needle points one each of 0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 3.5 and 6.0 sq cm. And one Tommy pin is supplied. Complete as above in a wooden carrying case.

Pocket Pentrometer
ASTM D 1558 D 2573
This instrument is used to estimate approximate unconfined compressive strength and the estimation to shear strength of soil Cohesive soils can also be classified in terms of consistency using this Penetrometer. This is a handy and convenient instrument.
Specification:
It consists of a light weight barrel assembly with a polished and ground steel loading piston plunger. A direct reading scale is engraved on the piston barrel and indicates load in kg. / sq. cm. A maximum load indicator ring is provided on the penetration plunger. The calibrated spring is heat treated and plated for rust resistance. The barrel diameter is 20mm and the length 150mm. Supplied with carrying case.

Vicksberg Pentrometer (Proving Ring Type)
This is fork determining the bearing capacity of sub grades or for
compaction control. It also used for rapidly of soils in shallow
exploration work.
Specification:
Consists of a study handle under. Which is fixed a sensitive proving ring. An extension piece is fixed to the bottom of the proving ring and carries a detachable penetration cone at its tip. Proving ring capacity 100 kg (1kn) and 0.002mm dial gauge provided indicates the penetration load applied.
An optical viewer is provided to facilitate reading the dial gauge by the operator. Simplified for single person operation. A calibration chart is provided for the proving ring. Instrument is complete in a wooden carrying case.
