GARDCO Gardner GT and Gardner GT-H Gel Timer

The GARDCO Gardner GT and Gardner GT-H Gel Timers are precision instruments designed to accurately measure the gel time of thermosetting materials, such as resins, plastics, paints, and adhesives. These timers are essential for assessing the curing process of materials, providing critical data to ensure optimal application and performance in industries like manufacturing, construction, and coatings.

The Gardner GT model is designed for low-viscosity materials, offering a gel time range from 5 seconds to 100 hours, with a resolution of 0.01 seconds. The Gardner GT-H model is specialized for high-viscosity materials and offers similar timing capabilities but includes a heavier-duty motor and spindle designed to withstand more viscous substances. Both models come equipped with a stainless-steel rod and disposable rods to ensure cleanliness and precision for repeated tests.

Key features include:

• Digital Accuracy: Both models feature a digital display with an accuracy of ±2% of the time, ensuring precise measurements.
• Range Flexibility: The wide gel time range of 5 seconds to 100 hours allows for testing across various materials.
• Temperature Control: Compatible with external temperature control devices to simulate different curing environments.
• Durability: Constructed with durable, corrosion-resistant materials to withstand laboratory conditions.

These gel timers are suitable for use in quality control and research environments. They are commonly utilized in industries like automotive manufacturing, aerospace, and polymer research to ensure materials meet stringent performance standards.
