The new Turf-Tec Infiltration Rings have Diameters of 12" and 24" (60
CM and 30 CM) and an overall Height of 20" (50 CM), matching the ASTM
Standard D3385-09, which replaced old ASTM D3385-94 and ASTM D3385-03.
The Turf-Tec Infiltration Rings are double rings for standard testing of soils with a Hydraulic Conductivity between 1X10-2 cm/s or less than about 1 X 10-6 cm/s, or sand type soils with high infiltration rates. This Double Ring Infiltrometer set is constructed of heavy duty and durable Galvanized Steel to prevent rust and ensure a long life. They are braced with welded steel supports, inside and out, to ensure the rings stay evenly centered as they penetrate the soil. They also contain ports to allow easy connection of Turf-Tec Mariotte Tubes. These rings provide an ASTM approved Double Ring Infiltration Test, which provides a soil infiltration test in a simple yet efficient manner. Turf-Tec 12" and 24" Infiltration Rings are already centered in position for ease of positioning, and ease of insertion, into the soil. The welded handle and welded inside support braces ensure the rings are perfectly centered with every test. In addition, the center ring is already suspended 1" above the outer ring to identically match the ASTM specifications and to ensure exact soil placement. |

| This method of testing is useful for field measurement of the infiltration rate of soils. Infiltration rates have applications in the field of liquid waste disposal, evaluation of potential septic tank disposal fields, leaching studies and drainage efficiencies. They are also helpful in determining irrigation requirements, water spreading or recharge, canal leakage and reservoir leakage testing and studies.
The Turf-Tec 12" and 24" ASTM Infiltration Rings are useful in industries like geology, geotechnical, engineering, hydrology, forestry, environmental testing, hydro geological, runoff studies, rain gardens, wetland mitigation, permeability testing, sanitation contractors, project planning, and EPA requirements. Double Ring Infiltrometer, standard set. Mariotte Tubes are
also available and highly recommended to maintain constant head pressure (IN12-W sold separately)

The purpose of the double ring is to insure the downward flow of movement of water to ensure proper measurements.
These Infiltration Rings are ideal for taking ASTM infiltration tests on all
areas and match the ASTM 3385 test.
