Description

Precision Undisturbed Soil Sampling

Shelby Tubes are an essential geotechnical tool used to extract soil samples from areas highly susceptible to disruption. Compliant with AS 1289.1.3.1 and 7.1.1, these tubes minimise the internal friction and displacement that can compromise sample integrity. Engineered for professionals in the geotechnical and environmental sectors, our Shelby Tubes provide the reliability needed for accurate laboratory analysis of cohesive soils.

AS 1289.1.3.1 COMPLIANT Design & Benefits

Our thin-walled samplers are designed to deliver high-quality specimens in varied ground conditions:

  • Delicate Wall Construction: The precision-engineered steel wall ensures a clean cut into the soil profile, maintaining the natural structure of the sample for density and moisture testing.
  • Integrated Cutting Edge: Each tube features a sharp, tapered cutting edge at the lower extremity to facilitate smooth penetration and reduce the force required for sampling.
  • Material Versatility: Available in both mild steel and corrosion-resistant stainless steel options, ideal for long-term storage or sensitive environmental sampling.
