Aluminum ISO Viscosity Cup

The aluminum ISO viscosity cup measures the viscosity of fluids such as paints and inks by allowing the fluid to flow out through a standard aperture under gravity. The viscosity value is calculated based on the outflow time. It is used for rapid testing of liquid flow characteristics in laboratories and production sites, complying with the ISO 2431 standard.
Selection
When selecting, consider matching the viscosity range of the fluid to be tested with the cup number, ensure the orifice size complies with standards, and choose aluminum material for its lightweight and corrosion-resistant properties. The operating environment requires stable temperature, and during operation, maintain vertical placement and control the fluid temperature.
