as the finest laboratory "U" gages - yet they are
made to roll up compactly for easy carrying and to
withstand rough usage.
Simply unroll the Dwyer® Slack Tube
and set up to read static pressure, vacuum, or
differential pressure. Magnetic clips hold it firmly to
any steel surface or hang it on a nail. Turn
connectors one revolution to open. When the
pressure is imposed, add the number of inches one
column travels up to the number of inches the other
column travels down. When reading is completed
turn connectors to seal columns, roll up
manometer into compact coil and tuck it away in its
circular metal case or a tool box. No fluid lost. No
loose caps or inserts to lose.
Dwyer® Slack Tube
range of pressure readings from 4-0-4 inches up to
60-0-60 inches. Use them in determining velocity
and static pressures, for leakage, fan and blower
tests, calibrating control devices, checking gas
pressure and many other applications.

exclusive molded nylon tubing connector
assemblies with rapid shutoff design in an
unbreakable molded top (see picture, page 2).

and practically unbreakable. Tubing connectors
extend horizontally allowing 360° freedom.
Tubes will not bend or pinch off.
All models have over pressure safety traps in
the top of both columns to prevent loss of fluid
due to over range pressures or surges in
pressure.
Slack Tube Manometers are suitable for total
®
pressures to 50 psi and vacuum not exceeding
20˝ Hg. (10˝ Hg absolute). Can not be used with
0.826 sp. gr. red gage fluid; use only water or
mercury.
