Ring and Ball Apparatus Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-H-14600
Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Ring and Ball Apparatus (Product ID: 14600) as part of its heat and thermal physics range. The ring and ball apparatus shows the thermal expansion of a solid with a brass ball and a close-fitting brass ring.
Quick Answer
At room temperature the ball, about 25–30 mm across depending on the model, passes easily through the ring. Heated in a Bunsen burner, spirit lamp or gas flame it expands and sits on the ring, then passes through again as it cools. Both parts are machined, lacquered brass with a wooden or insulated plastic handle, and hand-held or stand-mounted versions are offered. Hold the handle only and let the ball cool before touching it. Please confirm the ball size and mounting at quotation.
