    ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

    Grout Flow Cones and Sets


    HM-372, HM-372B, HM-373, HM-373B & HM-371
    Please refer to ASTM C939 Standard Test Method for Flow of
    Grout for Preplaced-Aggregate Concrete (Flow Cone Method)
    for exact test procedure.

    Grout Flow Cones measure the flowability of hydraulic grout


    used in preplaced aggregate concrete. Flowability is measured by
    time of discharge of a 1.725L sample of grout through an 0.5in
    (12.7mm) ID discharge tube orifice from the cone. The cast alumi-
    num Flow Cones all come with an adjustable point gauge assem-
    bly to indicate initial sample level.

    Gilson Grout Flow Cones can be purchased in a number of dif-


    ferent configurations best suited for your application and needs
    and feature replaceable orifice discharge tubes:

    HM-372 Grout Flow Cone Set is supplied complete to meet


    ASTM C939 requirements. An 0.5in (12.7mm) Orifice is already
    installed, and a 3-Legged Steel Support Stand, and 2L (2.1qt)
    stainless steel Beaker for use as a receiving container are also
    included.

    HM-373 Grout Flow Cone Set is identical to the HM-372 set,


    but has a 0.75in (19mm) Orifice to be used with alternate test
    methods.
