Renting penetrometers allows users to access appropriate testing equipment for specific projects without taking on long-term ownership, maintenance, storage, depreciation, and replacement responsibilities.
Product Overview
A penetrometer is an instrument used to measure the resistance of soil or another material to penetration. In agricultural and soil applications, a soil penetrometer can help assess soil compaction and penetration resistance, providing useful information about soil conditions that may affect root growth, water movement, and field operations.
Penetrometers are available in different designs, including handheld, analog, digital, cone-type, and specialized soil penetrometers. Different models may have different measurement ranges, cone sizes, penetration depths, displays, and recording capabilities.
Penetrometers are available for rent on Rentam.
Rentam penetrometers are inspected to ensure that important components such as probes, cones, shafts, handles, pressure sensors, displays, gauges, and recording systems are in suitable working condition before deployment. Whether for agricultural soil assessment, construction testing, geotechnical investigations, or research, Rentam connects renters with suitable testing instruments without ownership responsibilities.
Available Penetrometer Categories on Rentam
Different soil conditions and testing requirements require different penetrometer configurations. To help renters select suitable equipment, Rentam provides penetrometers in multiple categories based on measurement type, measurement range, cone size, penetration depth, display system, portability, operating method, and intended application.
These categories help farmers, engineers, researchers, consultants, contractors, and organizations select appropriate testing instruments without purchasing specialized equipment that may only be required for temporary projects.
Availability is subject to equipment location, condition, measurement requirements, soil conditions, demand, and rental terms.

💡 Usage Pro Tip
Take measurements at multiple representative points across the field or test area rather than relying on a single reading. Keep the penetration procedure consistent, including penetration speed and testing depth, because inconsistent testing methods can affect the comparability of results.

Usage & Care Notes
All Rentam penetrometers are inspected and made available according to the agreed rental terms. Renters should ensure that the instrument is used by a competent and responsible user familiar with the applicable testing procedure.
Before use, inspect the cone, probe, shaft, handle, gauge, pressure sensor, display, battery, cables, connectors, and other components. Damaged or excessively worn components should be reported before commencing testing.
Use the penetrometer according to the manufacturer’s specified penetration speed, measurement range, cone configuration, and operating procedure. Avoid forcing the instrument into ground conditions outside its rated capacity.
Where field comparisons are required, maintain a consistent testing procedure and record the test location, soil condition, depth, measurement, and relevant environmental conditions.
Clean the probe and cone after use, particularly when moving between different test locations. Store electronic instruments in appropriate dry conditions and protect them from excessive moisture, impact, heat, and other conditions outside their operating specifications.
Damage resulting from misuse, negligent handling, unauthorized modifications, improper maintenance, incorrect storage, or activities outside the agreed rental terms may attract penalties. Terms and conditions apply.
