Hand Corer Sampler
The simple design of this bottom sediment sampler
is the key to its versatility. In shallow waters,
the sampler can be pushed into the sediment using
the handles on the head assembly. If water depth
permits, extension handles of 5, 10, or 15 ft. can
be used to sample from boats or docks. In deeper
waters, the sampler can be dropped by attaching a
line to the clevis, located on the head assembly
between the handles. A simple flap valve allows
water to flow through the sampler during descent and
close tightly when removing the sampler, minimizing
sample loss. Corer takes a 2" diameter sample and
measures 20" long. All parts are constructed of 316
stainless steel.
The corer is available in two styles: standard
core tube without liners or a liner-type core tube
that accepts removable plastic or stainless steel
liners. Standard corer includes stainless core tube
and head assembly. Liner-type corer includes
threaded stainless core tube, 2 Lexan nosepieces, 2
plastic liners with end caps and 3 eggshell core
catchers for retaining soft sediments.
