Marsh Funnel with Measuring Cup

Product Code : MSI 1031

The Marsh Funnel with Measuring Cup is a precision laboratory instrument designed to determine the viscosity of bentonite slurry, drilling fluids, and similar materials. Manufactured in accordance with ASTM D2419 and AASHTO T 176, the Marsh Funnel provides a quick, simple, and reliable method for measuring the flow characteristics of slurries used in geotechnical, construction, and oilfield applications.

The viscosity is determined by measuring the time (in seconds) required for 1000 cc of slurry to flow through the funnel. The apparatus is supplied complete with a calibrated measuring cup for accurate testing.
