To begin, what exactly is a plastic limit device?

The Plastic Limit is created by Plastic Limit set Manufacturers when a little ball of moist plastic soil is repeatedly moulded and hand rolled into a 1/8in thread. It is also possible to do this test using a plastic limit roller. As moisture levels rise, the thread begins to break down before it is able to roll out completely. This is known as the "Plastic Limit.

The plastic limit test of the soil is important to determine the Plasticity Indicator of the soil. As per the Plastic Limit set Manufacturers the plastic limit of soil refers to the moisture content of soil at the boundary between the plastic and semi-solid phases of thickness, expressed as a percentage of the weight of roaster-dry soil (or plastic limit of soil).
