Features
The Stein Hall Viscosity Cup for adhesives determines the number of seconds required for a set volume of adhesive to flow through the viscometer’s orifice.
Technical Attributes
General
Procedure
The Stein hall cup must be calibrated before performing the test. Check the orifice to make sure it is not plugged, corroded or worn.
Calibration:
General Instructions:
Standards:
The instrument used throughout the industry since 1934 is called a Viscosity Cup or Stein-Hall Cup. The readings obtained do not directly correspond with any other viscosity scale.

Guide to Viscosity Measurement
Viscosity is an important property of liquids to determine how they flow, spread, or level under certain conditions. It can be defined as a liquid’s internal resistance to flow. Being able to measure the viscosity will allow to predict the behavior in a process or an application. When applying a paint by roll application the paint viscosity will strongly influence the amount of paint applied per surface area, thereby determining both yield and hiding power. It is crucial for liquid products to undergo a viscosity measurement in incoming and outgoing QC.
