Bimetallic Strips with a Wooden Handle

Product Code : SCL-H-11855

Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Bimetallic Strips with a Wooden Handle (Product ID: 11855) as part of its heat and thermal physics range. A bimetallic strip bends when heated because its two bonded metals expand by different amounts.

Quick Answer

The strip is 150 × 15 mm and only 1 mm thick, so a little heat produces a large bend. It is mounted in a wooden handle. On heating it curves with the metal that expands more on the outside of the curve, and it straightens again as it cools; the same effect works thermostats and fire alarms. Let the strip cool before touching it. Please confirm the number of strips supplied at quotation.
