This line of splitters has been developed to meet the requirements of reducing
small size samples in the field or laboratory. Constructed of stainless steel and
aluminum alloys, these splitters incorporate a cut-off gate which stops the flow
of materials from the hopper.
The Precision Sample Splitter is ideally suited for use in fine powdered or pulver-
ized materials which frequently tend to segregate.
