| RVHV-4 | 200 – 400,000 | Medium-high viscosity materials |
| RVHV-5 | 400 – 800,000 | For high viscosity fluids |
| RVHV-6 | 1,000 – 2,000,000 | For very high viscosity applications |
| RVHV-7 | 4,000 – 8,000,000 | For extremely high viscosity materials |
Typical Applications
These spindles are ideal for measuring viscosity in:
- Paints, coatings, and varnishes
- Adhesives and sealants
- Gels and creams
- Resins and polymers
- Bitumen and heavy oils
- Food products with high viscosity (e.g., syrups, pastes)
- Pharmaceutical semisolids
The AMETEK RV/HA/HB Standard Spindles provide a comprehensive solution for viscosity measurement of medium to extremely viscous materials. Their broad measurement range, precision engineering, and full compatibility with Brookfield viscometers and rheometers make them essential tools for laboratories, quality control environments, and industrial applications requiring reliable rheological analysis.
