Description
T-SP-5 T spindle 5 is an individual T-bar spindle for rotational viscosity measurement of non-flowing laboratory samples. The spindle can be used only together with the motorized HELISTAND stand and the matching nut and coupling. The complete T-SP-SET with nut and coupling is already included in the HELISTAND Set and in all ROTAVISC HELI Packages from manufacturer IKA. Combined with HELISTAND, T-spindles are especially suitable for materials that do not flow freely, such as creams, pastes and gelatine. Supplied as a single piece, the T-SP-5 serves as a dedicated replacement or expansion spindle for existing HELISTAND and ROTAVISC HELI configurations. Its T-geometry supports controlled immersion and measurement in highly viscous or structured media where conventional spindles are less effective. Typical applications include cosmetics, food gels and pharmaceutical semi-solids that require reliable characterisation under controlled shear. Net weight is 0,072 kg per unit, making the accessory easy to handle and store alongside the stand system.

Questions about T-SP-5, T spindle 5
What is this article?
T-SP-5, T spindle 5 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes IKA for laboratory use. It sits in Viscometers, inside Density & viscosity measurement, in Lab instruments.
A capillary viscometer times the flow of a liquid through a tube. A rotational viscometer twists a spindle in the liquid. Both need a stated temperature. Kinematic and dynamic viscosity are different numbers. The capillary size has to put the flow time in the range the method allows.
Density is mass divided by volume. A hydrometer floats at a depth that depends on the density of the liquid. A pycnometer is a vessel of known volume that is weighed full. Viscosity is the resistance to flow. A capillary viscometer times how long a volume takes to fall through a tube. Both measurements need a stated temperature, because liquids change density and viscosity as they warm. The units trace to the BIPM and to NIST.
