HTHS VISCOSITY STANDARDS Cannon

High Temperature (HTHS) Viscosity Standards Cannon

Product Description

Cannon High Temperature High Shear (HTHS) Viscosity Standards are premium-quality calibration fluids specifically designed for verifying the performance of instruments that measure the dynamic viscosity of lubricants at high temperatures and high shear rates. These standards are essential for ensuring the accuracy and consistency of viscometers used in evaluating engine oils under demanding operating conditions. Supplied in 0.5-liter containers, each batch is accompanied by certified lot-specific viscosity data for reliable reference.

Manufactured in compliance with multiple ASTM standard test methods, Cannon HTHS viscosity standards offer dependable performance across a wide range of testing applications. Their precision and stability make them ideal for quality control, instrument calibration, and method verification in both industrial and research laboratories.
