Water Permeability Test Kit
Product Code : LSK-CL-10587
Water Permeability Test Kit (SKU LSK-CL-10587) is a portable set for testing how readily water passes into hardened concrete, a key indicator of durability. Its pressure chamber, gauges, micrometer gauge and fixing tools come together as one kit for laboratory or field work. Civil engineering departments, materials-testing courses and construction trainers use it. Science Lab Supplies, operating from Ambala, India, supplies the kit to institutions, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The core of the kit is a pressure chamber unit with a 0–1.5 bar gauge, a built-in micrometer gauge and valves. An extra 0–6.0 bar gauge, anchoring tools, clamping pliers, wrenches and two thicknesses of gasket are included for setting the chamber up and sealing it.

Applications and Experiments for the Water Permeability Test Kit
The kit is used to measure water permeability of concrete, showing how well a mix or surface resists water under pressure. It supports durability topics in concrete technology for B.Tech and diploma civil engineering and gives trainees in construction-materials courses hands-on practice with pressure-based testing of hardened concrete.
- B.Tech / B.E. civil engineering: durability and permeability of hardened concrete.
- Diploma civil engineering: comparing permeability of different mixes or curing methods.
- TVET materials-testing courses: setting up, sealing and reading a pressure chamber.
- Project work on water-cement ratio and concrete durability.
Standard Scope of Supply
The kit comprises the pressure chamber unit with 0–1.5 bar gauge, micrometer gauge and valves; an extra 0–6.0 bar gauge; anchoring tools with drift and hammer; a pressure-lid wrench; 14 and 17 mm wrenches; clamping pliers; a filling cup; sealant tape; eight gaskets; and three bottles of boiled water.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Quotations can be made for one kit or several for a teaching lab, and each lists packing, delivery time and price for the requested quantity. Spare gaskets and sealant tape can be asked for on the same quotation, which helps when planning TVET workshop equipment for repeated classes.
Science Lab Supplies, a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, can ship to buyers in Uganda, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, the Philippines and Nepal. Enquiries go through the contact page or the enquiry cart, and the lab tender page explains support for tenders.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Water Permeability Test Kit measure?
It is used to test how readily water penetrates hardened concrete under pressure. The sealed pressure chamber carries a 0–1.5 bar gauge and a built-in micrometer gauge for taking the readings.
Which gauges are included?
Two: the 0–1.5 bar gauge fitted to the pressure chamber unit and an extra 0–6.0 bar gauge supplied loose.
Who supplies this kit?
Science Lab Supplies supplies it from Ambala, India, with quotations going straight to engineering colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Are consumables such as gaskets included?
Yes. The kit includes four 15 mm and four 10 mm gaskets, sealant tape and three bottles of boiled water; extra consumables can be quoted separately.
