APPENDIX D — SOLID SHAFT SPINDLE OPTION

Solid shaft spindles are available for use with the Brookfield Thermosel Systems. These spindles

facilitate the measurement of “stiff”, slow-flowing materials such as:

Candy base

Pastes

Highly-filled epoxies

Asphalts

The solid shaft on these spindles minimizes the “walking” (eccentric rotation) experienced when

measuring “stiff” materials with the standard link hanging Thermosel spindles. These spindles

are directly interchangeable in viscosity range and sample volume with the standard Thermosel

spindles. No modifications to the Thermosel or the viscometer are necessary. Solid shaft spindles

are available, as listed:

SC4-27 bS

SC4-31 bS

SC4-28 bS

SC4-34 bS

SC4-29 bS

Contact Brookfield Engineering Laboratories or your Brookfield agent for purchase of these spindles.
