Aggregate Crushing Value (ACV) Sets

Aggregate Crushing Value (ACV) Sets are used to evaluate the crushing resistance of coarse and medium-grained aggregates in accordance with standard test methods. The test set consists of a precision-manufactured steel cylinder, plunger, base plate, cylindrical mould, and tamping rod, all designed to ensure consistent loading and accurate measurement during testing. The standard Aggregate Crushing Value (ACV) Sets configuration includes a steel cylinder with an internal diameter of 150 mm, suitable for testing coarse aggregate fractions. For finer aggregate sizes, an alternative 75 mm diameter cylinder body is available, providing flexibility across different material gradations. The mould, plunger, and base plate are manufactured from hardened alloy steel to deliver maximum impact resistance, dimensional stability, and long service life under repeated loading conditions. High manufacturing precision ensures proper alignment between components, minimizing test variability and improving result repeatability. The robust construction of the Aggregate Crushing Value (ACV) Sets makes them suitable for routine use in quality control laboratories, research facilities, and aggregate testing environments.
