Description

K800 Cone Adapter

The hardened cone adapter is used in soil with high shear strength. It attaches to the end of the Drive Rod to hold the K900 Disposable Cones in place during the test. The disposable cone easily pops off and stays behind while the drive rod is safely extracted from the test hole.

Application Note:

It is important to wrench tighten the cone adapter to the drive rod using the wrench flats provided. This prevents stripping of the threads during test by hammer impact force. Pliers or just hand tightening does not get enough contact to transfer the hammer blows through the shoulders on the drive rod and cone adapter.

  1. Use K800 Cone Adapters with K900 Disposable Cones. It helps prevent bending of the drive rods during extraction
  2. They allow easier extraction of the drive rod reducing operator fatigue
