About This Product
The plastic limit is the water content at which a soil just begins to crumble when it is rolled into a thread of 3 mm diameter. In the test, wet soil is rolled on the frosted glass plate with the palm until the thread cracks at this size. The crumbled soil is placed in a moisture container and its water content is found by weighing and drying. The plastic limit is used with the liquid limit to classify fine-grained soils and to work out the plasticity index. School Lab Equipment India can export the Plastic Limit Set to education buyers in Mozambique, Ecuador, Jordan, Paraguay, Armenia and Samoa.
