Force Meter/Spring Balance
Force Meter/Spring Balance (Product Code: SLE/ME/09) is a dual-purpose spring instrument used to weigh hanging objects and to measure pushing or pulling forces in school physics and general science lessons. Its extended rod lets students press against or pull on an object as well as hang loads from it, and this red, colour-coded 2 kg version is scaled in both grams and newtons. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

What Is a Force Meter Used For?
Hang an object from the meter and students read its weight in newtons alongside its mass in grams, which makes the difference between mass and weight concrete. Turn the instrument round and the extended rod becomes a push-pull gauge: pupils can measure the force needed to start a block sliding, compare friction on different surfaces, or push a trolley and feel how force relates to motion. That versatility makes it a core item in any force and motion experiment kit.
The write-on strip on the rod is useful with younger classes, who can mark their own simple scale for a lesson and wipe it clean afterwards. Before each reading, check that the indicator sits at zero with nothing attached, keep the meter in line with the direction of the force, and read it at eye level. Staying within the 2 kg range protects the spring from being overstretched.
OEM Manufacturer
ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of this force meter. It is made and assembled at the company’s own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, rather than bought in from a trader, and goes factory-direct to schools, colleges, science centres, dealers and importers in India and international markets. Repeat batches for extra classes and questions about replacement parts are handled by the manufacturer itself, so simply ask us when you need more. Read about the company on the ScienceLab profile.
Related Measuring Equipment
Force and motion lessons often combine the meter with these items:
- Spring Scales, Green, 500 g (5 N) — a lower range for finer readings of light loads.
- Pull-Spring Scales, Economy — a simple pull-only scale for class sets.
- Dynamics Trolley, Plastic — a trolley to push or pull while measuring the applied force.
- Hooke’s Law Apparatus — explores how a spring stretches under load, the principle behind the meter.
- Newton Mass Set 10N Set — known loads for checking readings in newtons.

Frequently Asked Questions
What can the Force Meter/Spring Balance measure?
The Force Meter/Spring Balance measures the weight of objects hung from it and, using its extended rod, the force needed to push or pull an object. One instrument therefore covers weighing, friction and simple force-and-motion activities in class.
What units are marked on the Force Meter/Spring Balance?
The Force Meter/Spring Balance is calibrated in both grams and newtons. Reading the two scales side by side helps students see the link between an object’s mass and the gravitational force acting on it.
What range does the Force Meter/Spring Balance have?
The Force Meter/Spring Balance listed here is the red, colour-coded 2 kg version. Keep loads within that range so the spring is not overstretched; for light loads, a lower-range spring scale gives finer readings.
Can students write their own scale on the Force Meter/Spring Balance?
Yes. The Force Meter/Spring Balance has a clear, flat area on its rod that takes a dry-wipe marker, so students can draw their own scale for an activity and wipe it off afterwards without affecting the printed calibration.
What comes with the Force Meter/Spring Balance?
Each Force Meter/Spring Balance includes an instructions and ideas sheet that explains how to use it and suggests classroom activities. Masses, trolleys and other apparatus for experiments are separate items that can be quoted with it.
Who manufactures the Force Meter/Spring Balance?
The Force Meter/Spring Balance is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools and dealers receive quotations directly from the manufacturer.
Can the Force Meter/Spring Balance be ordered in class sets?
Yes, the Force Meter/Spring Balance can be quoted in class quantities for schools, colleges and dealers in India and international markets. State the number required and your delivery location so the manufacturer can prepare the quotation.
