Tubular Impact Tester is of latest design. User may modify the instrument to suit their requirements, by adding or removing different capacity weights. Impact tester is available in standard tube length of 25” and 40” scale (62.5cm and 102cm scale marked) and with weights of 2 lb and 4 lb with tester (2 lb with 25” and 4 lb with 40” tube length).

The weights are to be loaded from the bottom by loosening the Allen screws and moving the tube. Impact is calculated in inch/lb force. For example, 2 lb impactor dropped from a height of 40”, gives 80 inch/lb force.

(lb x inch = lb/inch)
(kg x cm = kg/cm)
