Viscosity & Flash Point Standards

Cannon Instrument Company

 

CANNON Instrument Company, a leader in viscosity measurement since 1938, provides a wide array of viscosity standards and flash point reference materials for various industries. These products are designed to calibrate and verify different viscometers, including glass capillary, automated kinematic, rotational, falling ball, cup, and tapered bearing simulator viscometers, along with flash point testers.

CANNON’s viscosity standards guarantee reliable and accurate test results, thanks to traceability to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) calibration. In 2003, NIST designated CANNON as the custodian of the U.S. national standards for certified liquid viscosity reference materials. All products are developed in an ISO 9001-certified and A2LA-accredited laboratory, reflecting high quality and precision.

The company’s ISO 17025 and Guide 34 accreditations further validate its expertise in manufacturing and certifying reference materials. Each standard comes with a 12- to 18-month expiration date from the order date, ensuring a reliable product lifespan.
