Or, in a different vein, a dipping sauce produced by a food and beverage manufacturer may be too runny (low viscosity) or too difficult to pour (high viscosity).

For instance, in an industrial application, one may need to know the viscosity of a liquid fuel, as a high viscosity liquid requires more power to pump than a low viscosity liquid. Gathering relevant data about viscosity lets manufacturers and commercial operations predict how a product will behave in the real world. Whether you need to test the viscosity of a liquid solution or check for high viscosity, Cross can help. That’s just one of the reasons Cross has become a go-to test solutions provider for so many in the industrial and commercial worlds. At Cross, we have experience with a wide variety of industries and a wide range of industry-specific standards. Many different industries regularly make use of viscosity testing, as well as other physical testing procedures.
