The KIMBLE® KIMAX® Cold Test Jar is a precision-engineered glass vessel designed for cloud point and pour point testing of petroleum oils. Constructed from high-quality borosilicate glass 3.3, this jar offers excellent thermal stability, chemical resistance, and structural durability, making it ideal for standardized oil testing environments.
Manufactured in accordance with ASTM D2500 and D97 protocols, this jar is used to determine:
- The cloud point – the temperature at which haze appears due to wax crystal formation.
- The pour point – the lowest temperature at which the oil is still pourable.
