Twaddle Hydrometers
These hydrometers measure degrees Twaddle, and are available in the following ranges in either short or long versions:
Twaddle No.1, 0-24°
Twaddle No.2, 24-48°
Twaddle No.3, 48-74°
Twaddle No.4, 74-102°
Twaddle No.5, 102-138°
Short hydrometers are 160 mm long, with 1.0° scale divisions. Long hydrometers are 230 mm long, with 0.5° scale divisions. To specify a product use the prefix shown, followed by range number.
