These new Ford viscosity cups are extremely easy to use. Simply pour your sample into the cup and measure the time it takes for the liquid to flow through the orifice until the first break in the liquid stream. Use the included table to convert the elapsed time to centistokes (cSt).
The cups are made from solid aluminum; the orifice is made from brass. All the cups are calibrated to NIST-traceable oils.
An accessory kit, a stand, and a stand with water bath ports are sold separately.
