(diameters only relative with approximate measurement, H=headjoint only) Headjoint Diameters (in) / Wall Thicknesses (in) / Sounding Lengths (mm) Indicated) these measurements are in millimeters since it isĬonvenient to think of 600mm being approximately A-440 for normalįlutes. Headjoints fully inserted, from center of embouchure to end of foot Sounding length measurements were made with Questionable due to wear, tenon burnishing, and GoferJoe's somewhat Modified micrometer (see image - I ground a large steel ball bearingĭown to 300/1000' to fit inside tubing). Tenon and body tenon and averaged over several measurements using a Wall thicknesses were measured at headjoint Sg=solid gold ss=solid silver, sp=silver plate, wd=wood, st=stainless Tube column indicates al=aluminum bs=brass Listed in order of increasing headjoint diameter as determined by Headjoint can be made to fit any flute below it in the list.

FeaturesĮmerson Certified ECT Calibration & Maintenance Kit Custom alloys, proprietary production equipment, heat and chemical hardness treating, specialized manufacturing procedures, highest precision long-life components, per-piece quality assurance, after-market user calibration capability, and decades of experience working with standards organizations as well as end users allow us to offer the quality and reliability that the industrial testing industry needs and expects. The Emerson ECT fixture IS the industry standard directly referenced in TAPPI specifications.

The clamp method produces consistently higher results than the wax method, with ECT values equal to or better than the wax method and without the variability often associated with it. Emerson leads the way with our patented ECT Holding Fixture, which utilizes the mechanical clamping method referenced in TAPPI Test Method T 839.
