ISO 2431 Flow Cup

Laboratory-Type ISO 2431 Flow Cup for ADR Regulations

TQC Sheen ISO 2431 Flow Cups are titanium anodized aluminium cups with a fixed stainless-steel nozzle. This laboratory type cup is to be used with a stand and can be used to measure the viscosity of lacquers, paints, varnishes, and other liquids. They are widely used for adjusting the application viscosity of paints, printing inks, and varnishes. They are also designed according to DIN, EN, ISO 2431.

The TQC Sheen ISO 2431 Viscosity Cup has five fixed nozzle, orifice options being:

  • Ø 3 mm
  • Ø 4 mm
  • Ø 5 mm
  • Ø 6 mm
  • Ø 8 mm

The process of flow through an orifice can often be used as a relative measurement and classification of viscosity. This measured kinematic viscosity is generally expressed in seconds of flow time, which can be converted into Centistokes using a viscosity conversion disc.

Ideal for measuring the consistency of paints, varnishes, food, beverages, and other similar products and samples.

In accordance with the Regulation on the Transport of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR Regulation), these cups—compliant with TS ISO 2431—are used to determine the packaging group of substances or to verify viscosity exemptions by measuring kinematic viscosity.

Made in the Netherlands.
