Concrete Curing Tank
Thermostatically controlled water curing tank maintaining 27 ± 2 °C for concrete specimen curing per IS 516.
NABL TC-14144·
ISO/IEC 17025:2017·
Lab ID NKM/EQ-156
The Curing Tank holds concrete cubes, cylinders and cores in water at a controlled 27 ± 2 °C until testing, so that specimens gain strength under the standard conditions required by IS 516. Correct curing is essential for valid, comparable compressive-strength results.
What this equipment tests
- Standard water curing of concrete cubes and cylinders
- Controlled 27 ± 2 °C curing environment
- Specimen conditioning prior to strength testing

Frequently asked questions
Why is controlled curing important?
Concrete strength depends on curing temperature and moisture; IS 516 requires 27 ± 2 °C water curing so results are standard and comparable.
What temperature is maintained?
27 ± 2 °C, thermostatically controlled.
