The H-1068 Ductility Testing Machine takes our H-1068X machine and adds a circulating temperature control unit. Solid-state thermostatically controlled bath and circulator maintain water temperature within a ± 0.9°F (± 0.5°C). .

The H-1068B is a three-speed machine designed for Standard and Force Ductility tests. The unit tests three briquets simultaneously and its DC, direct-drive motor maintains constant speed, entirely vibration-free. Speeds of 1/4, 1 or 5cm per minute are selected via lever shift on mechanical gear box. A single brass lead screw mounted above water level prevents agitation of water and premature rupture of specimens. A traveling pointer adjusts to zero starting position and indicates exact position of carriage on a linear centimeter scale attached to trough’s front edge.

Maximum carriage travel (elongation) is 150cm with an automatic stop.The Unit has a stainless steel interior with an overflow connection, and a baked enamel stainless steel-wrapped exterior. Gears are bronze or brass; all other parts are solid brass to prevent rusting. Finned stainless steel tubes beneath a false bottom provide efficient thermal transfer. Includes a 6′ (183cm) cord, feed-through switch and 3-prong plug.

Includes 3 standard H-1080 briquet molds with H-1090 plates. Trough overall dimension: 11-3/4 x 74 x 6-3/8"H.
