PLASTIC LIMIT SET

Plastic Limit Set is manufactured as per the IS 2720 (PART-VII) ASTM D-42, BS 1377 AASHTO T 90 Standards. The plastic limit test is performed on the soil in order to identify the plastic limit of that soil. The plastic limit is defined as the amount of water content in the soil below which the soil can no longer have its plasticity. When you further process the soil beyond its plastic limit, it can crumble and become like rolled-out threads which have an approximate diameter of 3 mm. The plastic limit set is one of the primary as well as effective instruments that are used for soil testing purposes.
