Hoek Cell Membrane
Hoek Cell membranes are used in laboratory systems designed according to international rock testing standards, including:
- ASTM D7012.
- ISRM Suggested Methods.
- ISO 17892.
These standards are commonly followed in rock triaxial compression and confining pressure tests.
Core Diameter (inch)
56 mm
130 mm
Thickness 2.0-2.5mm
Typical Applications Hoek Cell membranes are mainly used for:
Rock triaxial compression testing Confining pressure testing of rock cores Elastic modulus measurement of rock specimens Laboratory research in rock mechanics and geotechnical engineering
Compatibility These membranes are compatible with Hoek-type triaxial pressure cells used in rock mechanics laboratories, including systems supplied by major testing equipment manufacturers. Typical compatible equipment includes: Hoek Triaxial Cells Rock Triaxial Compression Systems Laboratory Rock Mechanics Testing Frames
All membranes are manufactured under strict quality control procedures to ensure: Consistent thickness Uniform elasticity Reliable sealing during testing Each batch is inspected to ensure the membrane performs reliably under laboratory confining pressures.
Custom membranes can be produced according to customer drawings or sample specifications. Available options include: Custom diameter Custom length Different thickness levels Special material formulations This allows the membrane to match specific Hoek Cell pressure chamber designs used in different laboratories.
Professional manufacturing experience in geotechnical testing membranes Support for custom laboratory equipment sizes Stable quality suitable for research laboratories and universities Global supply to Europe, North America, and research institutions

Membrane Penetration Effect in Triaxial Testing Explained
I’ve seen this confuse even experienced labs: the sample “compresses,” but the soil didn’t really change that much. The membrane penetration effect happens when the
Stress–Strain Behaviour of Latex Membranes Under Confining Pressure
I used to focus only on the soil curve. Then I realised the membrane has its own stress–strain story too. Under confining pressure, a latex
Understanding Young’s Modulus of Latex Membranes in Triaxial Testing: Why It Matters for Accurate Results
I used to treat membranes like “just a sleeve.” Then I realised their stiffness can quietly bend the data. Young’s modulus tells you how stiff
Temperature Effects on Latex Membrane Performance in Long-Duration Tests
I used to ignore temperature. Then a “perfect” long CD test drifted overnight and taught me a lesson. Temperature changes latex stiffness, creep rate, and
Latex vs Synthetic Membranes: The Future of High-Pressure Soil Testing
I hear this question a lot in labs: is latex still the best choice when pressure goes high? Latex offers unmatched elasticity and sealing, while
