6in Soil Density Mold Components

6in (152mm) Soil Density Mold Components consist of a split or solid mold body, base, and collar used in Proctor Compaction & Density Testing. Each component is constructed of rugged heavy steel and plated with clear zinc to resist rust. Each product is available individually or together in a 6in Soil Density Mold Set.

HMA-116M 6in Soil Density Mold Only is a one-piece solid unit. It has a 4.584in (116.4mm) height and 6.0in ID with 0.0750ft³ (2,124cm³) volume.

HMA-117M 6in Soil Density Split Mold Only has the same dimensions as the solid mold but separates longitudinally for fast, easy sample removal. Clamps shut to specified volume with swivel bolts and wing nuts.
