These viscosity dip cups are often used in the printing or ink industry.

Simply dip the cup into the product to be measured, lift it out and measure how long it takes for the contents to empty through the orifice.

The measured kinematic viscosity is generally expressed in seconds (s) flow time, which can be converted into Centistokes (cSt).

Elcometer viscosity dip cups are available in six different orifice sizes for measurements between 2 and 1300cSt.
