Slake Durability Apparatus
STANDARDS : ASTM D4644
Slake durability is a simulated weathering test to determine abrasion resistance during wetting and drying cycles of shale and similar soft rocks as used in
embankments and other construction-related applications.
Samples are alternately tumbled in mesh drums through a water medium and oven-dried for two cycles.
The percent loss of mass is referred to as the slake durability index.
*** It consists of a motorized drive unit which is mounted on a baseplate and which can rotate two or four drums at a speed of 20 r.p.m.
The tank assemblies are filled with water to a level 20 mm below the drum axis.
The test drums are manufactured from 2.00 mm mesh, 140 mm dia. x 100 mm long
