Description
The TQC Sheen Viscosity Cup DIN 53211 (Interchangeable Nozzle) is a versatile and high‑quality flow cup designed to measure the viscosity of paints, coatings, lacquers and similar fluids. The cup features a durable body (titanium anodized aluminum) and uses interchangeable stainless‑steel nozzles, allowing you to choose the appropriate orifice size for your specific viscosity testing needs. The interchangeable-nozzle design ensures flexibility and precision across a wide viscosity range — ideal for production, quality control, and laboratory environments.

How it Works
- Select and mount the appropriate stainless‑steel nozzle for the fluid’s expected viscosity.
- Place the viscosity cup securely on a tripod or suitable stand, ensuring it is perfectly vertical and level.
- Cover the nozzle with your finger to stop the flow temporarily, then level off the surface by wiping it smoothly with a glass.
- Remove your finger from the nozzle and start a timer as the fluid begins to flow out.
- Measure the flow time until the fluid stops flowing (flow break).
- Use a conversion chart or disc to convert flow time to kinematic viscosity (cSt), under controlled temperature conditions.
