What Is the Board Pin Packet Used For?

Optics practicals such as refraction through a glass slab or prism and reflection from a plane mirror are drawn on paper fixed to a soft drawing board. Board pins at the corners stop the sheet shifting while students mark rays and object pins, which keeps angle measurements consistent. The same pins hold charts, timetables and notices on classroom pin-boards.

Press each pin in straight with the thumb, lift it out with a fingernail or pin lifter rather than prising with a scale, and keep the packet closed and away from young children. Brass pins are a simple stationery item that completes any school lab setup in India where optics experiments are drawn on paper.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the pins in the Board Pin Packet made of?

How many pins are in one Board Pin Packet?
The number of pins in each Board Pin Packet is not listed on this page. Ask ScienceLab through the contact page for the packet quantity and pin details before placing your order.

Why are board pins needed in physics practicals?
Pins from the Board Pin Packet hold paper flat on a drawing board during ray-diagram experiments with glass slabs, prisms and mirrors, stopping the sheet from moving while students trace rays and measure angles.

Can the Board Pin Packet be used outside the lab?
Yes, the Board Pin Packet suits school, office and home use, including pinning notices, charts and papers to pin-boards so that everything stays exactly where you want it.

Who supplies the Board Pin Packet?
