About Laboratory Vane Shear

Laboratory vane shear app. Motorised:

Laboratory Vane Shear(Motorized) of:

  • Consists of a torque head adjustable in height by means of a lead screw rotated by a drive wheel to enable the vane to be lowered into the specimen.
  • Rotation of the vane is by means of a hand wheel which operates a worm gear arrangement turning the upper end of a calibration torsion spring, vane dia, rod dia, vane size & vane height are as per IS specifications. The vane shaft is attached through the hollow upper shaft to a resettable pointer, which indicates the angle indicates the angle of torque on a dial graduated in degree the dial reading multiplied by spring factor gives the torque a container for soil sample is also supplied & a sampling tube of 38mm. i.d. & 150mm long can also be used as container .
  • Supplied with set of four springs, one each of approx. 2 kgs/cm sq., 4kgs/cm sq., 6 kgs/cm sq. & 8kgs/cm sq. complete as above in a wooden carrying case.
  • Electrically operated rate of rotating is 1/60 R.P.M. Suitable for operation on 230 V A.C. Single Phase. 


Accurate Soil Shear Testing

Engineered for both field and laboratory applications, the Laboratory Vane Shear instrument delivers reliable, direct-read shear values on its dial gauge. The precision gear mechanism and sample holder accommodate various soil types and maintain consistency, making it an ideal tool for geotechnical investigations and civil engineering projects.


Rugged and User-Friendly Design

Constructed from powder-coated mild steel, the device is robust yet portable, weighing approximately 12 kg. Designed for intuitive manual operation, it requires no electricity, making it suitable for remote or on-site testing. The powder coating enhances its resistance to corrosion, ensuring longevity and low maintenance demands.


Versatile Application in Soil Testing

This table-top shear testing unit suits a variety of users, including laboratories, educational institutions, contractors, and field engineers. Its measurement range, ambient temperature suitability, and straightforward process make it effective for routine investigations and quality assurance in soil characterization.

FAQs of Laboratory Vane Shear:


Q: How is the Laboratory Vane Shear operated during soil testing?

A: The device is manually operated using a hand-driven mechanism that rotates the vane at a speed of 1/60 rpm. The shear strength of the soil sample is measured directly from the dial gauge as the vane penetrates the soil placed in the sample holder.

Q: What types of soil samples can be tested with this instrument?

A: The instrument is suitable for testing cohesive soils, such as clay or silty clay. It accommodates samples with a maximum diameter of 38 mm and a vane height of 75 mm, which is typical for laboratory and field soil investigations.

Q: When is it beneficial to use a hand-operated vane shear tester?

A: A hand-operated vane shear tester is ideal when electricity is unavailable or for portable, onsite measurements. Its manual nature offers flexibility for field engineers, researchers, and laboratory technicians needing quick, direct soil shear strength assessments.

Q: Where can the Laboratory Vane Shear instrument be utilized?

A: This instrument can be used in field settings, construction sites, and laboratories. Its compact size and portability make it suitable for locations with limited infrastructure or those requiring routine soil strength analysis.

Q: What is the process for conducting a shear test with this equipment?

A: To perform a test, place the prepared soil sample into the holder, insert the vane, and rotate the handle at a constant speed. The maximum torque indicated on the dial gauge corresponds directly to the soils shear strength.

Q: What are the key benefits of using this Laboratory Vane Shear model?

A: Key benefits include its portability, ease of use, direct measurement on a dial gauge, no power requirement, and suitability for both field and laboratory use. Its robust, powder-coated MS body ensures durability, and minimal maintenance is required for ongoing reliable operation.
