Description
T-SP-Set is a T-spindle set developed especially for viscosity measurement of non-flowing samples such as creams, pastes or gelatine. The set is the matching accessory for the electric stand HELISTAND, enabling controlled immersion and measurement paths in highly viscous or structured materials that do not flow freely under gravity. Supplied as one complete set with a net weight of 0,506 kg, it provides the specialised spindle geometry needed for these challenging sample types. The T-SP-Set from manufacturer IKA extends HELISTAND-based viscosity workflows into applications involving semi-solids and pastes common in cosmetics, food and pharmaceutical laboratories. Packaging dimensions of approximately 0,082 m height, 0,160 m width and 0,270 m depth keep the set compact for storage beside the stand. Gross weight equals net weight at 0,506 kg. By pairing T-spindles with the HELISTAND motion profile, laboratories can obtain reproducible readings on materials that are poorly suited to conventional flow-cup or concentric-cylinder geometries, supporting formulation development and quality control of non-Newtonian products.

Questions about T-SP-Set, T-spindle set
What is this article?
T-SP-Set, T-spindle set 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.
