The Spiral Grain Spear is a high-performance aluminium sampler designed to deliver fast, reliable, and highly representative sampling of coarse materials such as grains, granules, and large-particle powders. Its spiral pocket design ensures that the bottom pocket opens first during sampling, providing a more accurate cross-section of the material.
Ideal for sampling from large containers such as IBCs, drums, silos, railway wagons, ships, and similar bulk storage units, the spear is lightweight and easy to handle, even at extended lengths. The fixed tip ensures durability and prevents accidental loss during use.
Key Features
Superior Sample Representation - Spiral pocket design ensures the bottom pocket fills first, giving a more representative cross-section of the material being sampled.
Robust and Lightweight - Constructed from high-quality aluminium, the spear is strong yet lightweight, making it easy to operate even in larger sizes.
Easy to Use - Simply insert the spear in the closed position, then slowly open it to allow the material to enter. The spiral design ensures consistent and even filling. Close the sampler, withdraw, and empty the contents through the handle.
Quick to Clean - Designed with an easy-clean construction, the spear can be stripped down and cleaned in seconds, ensuring hygiene and preventing cross-contamination between samples.
Fixed Tip Design - The permanently attached tip ensures it cannot be lost or misplaced during use.
