• Conically shaped steel cup delivers 44 cc's of liquid sample through a precision orifice
• Twelve-inch looped stainless steel handle allows the cup to be dipped by hand into a liquid container
• Stainless steel split key ring at top of handle for aligning cup in a true vertical position when conducting tests
• Cup No. 1: Generally used for very thin mixtures where low solids application is desired
• Cup No. 2: Primarily used for all mixed paints which have been reduced with solvent for application. Used by the automotive and similar industries
