Only the Dipstick instantly calculates F#s and instantly produces graphs on-site. Truly Economical. The Fastest Way to the Right Answer™ The Dipstick operates at up to 1,200 readings per hour. The fastest way to the right answer. The true measure of economical operation.
Measure, analyze and report combined F-Numbers for a 10,000 sq.ft. (1,000 square meter) slab in 30 minutes or less! Measure American Concrete Institute / ASTM FF & FL (Random Traffic) and Fmin (Defined Traffic).
With the rolling instruments on the market, you can't measure Fmin at all. With another device, you have to pay extra software rental fees to measure Fmin. Dipstick calculates Fmin on-site.
With at least four to ten times the accuracy of its competitors. Lowest Total Cost of Ownership Because we sell so many instruments, the purchase price of the Dipstick is less than some other profilers, even though Dipsticks are the highest quality instrument - even coming with their own HP color computer!
But, when you figure in the costs of maintaining your profiler once you've bought it, over its lifetime, a Dipstick will cost 40% to 75% less than other profilers. Dipsticks should continue to produce accurate data for 15 years or more. Never Needs Recalibration - Saves $7,500 to $30,000 over the Life of the Instrument With Dipstick, there's No Expensive and Inconvenient Annual Recalibration. With other profilers, you have to pay $500 to $1,000 or more every year in calibration fees and the shipping costs back and forth. That means you'll pay $7,500 to $15,000 or more in extra costs over the life of the those instruments. For customers outside North America, those extra costs could easily double to $15,000 or $30,000 in recalibration fees, high international shipping costs (in both directions) and the costs of clearing customs again and again.
Moreover, with those other profilers, while you're paying the extra fees and the round trip shipping costs, you will also lose the use of the instrument for weeks or months at a time while it's being calibrated and shipped back and forth. Watch the Dipstick Precision, Accuracy and Repeatability video above to see the performance of six different Dipsticks - up to nine years old - that had never been recalibrated.
You can easily check the calibration of your Dipstick yourself. This process is described in the Dipstick Operator's Manual.
