Inclined Plane With Accessories
Inclined Plane With Accessories (Product Code: SCL-871/01g) is a polished wooden tribometer board, 900 mm long, with a metal pulley at one end and a drilled wooden bar that slides along it. Students use it to study friction, forces on a slope and the mechanical advantage of an inclined plane. This inclined plane apparatus India schools use in mechanics practicals is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.
Specifications
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Plane (tribometer) | Polished wood, coniferous species, without stubs (knots) |
| Plane dimensions | Length 900 mm, width 100 mm, thickness 25 mm |
| Mounting | Fixing element for attaching to a stand |
| Pulley | Metal pulley at one end, maximum diameter 40 mm, thickness 4 mm |
| Accessory bar | One wooden bar, minimum 30 x 40 x 120 mm |
| Bar holes | Three blind holes of 10 mm diameter, drilled to the middle of the body, symmetrically distributed on each of two adjacent sides |
| Bar hook | Hook in the middle of the small side |
Typical Use
Laid flat on the bench, the board acts as a friction track: hook a force meter to the wooden bar and pull it along at a steady speed to measure sliding friction, then turn the bar onto its other face to compare contact areas, or add masses to see how friction grows with the normal force. Because the bar has holes on two adjacent sides, students can load it evenly in more than one orientation.
Raised on a stand through its fixing element, the board becomes an inclined plane. Tie a thread from the bar's hook over the end pulley to a hanger of masses and you have a simple pulley system lab India teachers use to show the force needed to hold or raise a load up a slope. Gradually tilting the plane until the bar just starts to slide is also a neat way to estimate the coefficient of static friction from the angle.
Manufacturer
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab in Ambala, Haryana, manufactures the inclined plane and its accessory bar for school physics departments. The company is a registered MSME enterprise (Udyam UDYAM-HR-01-0003714) and handles export shipments under Importer-Exporter Code AAECJ8618A issued by the DGFT. See the company profile for more.
Related Lab Equipment
To run full friction and slope experiments on this board, these catalogue items are the usual companions:
- Dynamometer — hook it to the bar to read the pulling force directly in newtons.
- Stand — supports the plane at an angle through its fixing element.
- Set Of Marked Masses — hang over the pulley or add to the bar to change the load.
- Digital Chronometer (Stopwatch) — time the bar sliding down the slope.
- Inclined Plane with Roller & Pan — an alternative inclined plane design with a roller and pan.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is included with the inclined plane?
The polished wooden plane with its end pulley and fixing element, plus one wooden bar with blind holes and a hook. Force meters, masses and stands are ordered separately.
How long and wide is the plane?
It is 900 mm long, 100 mm wide and 25 mm thick, made from knot-free coniferous wood with a polished surface.
What are the holes in the wooden bar for?
The three 10 mm blind holes on each of two adjacent sides let you add small loads evenly and use the bar in different orientations when comparing friction.
Can I use it without a stand?
Yes, laid flat it works as a horizontal friction track. To use it as an inclined plane you need a stand or another support attached through the fixing element.
How do I keep the friction results consistent?
Keep the polished surface clean, dry and free of chalk or oil, and wipe both the board and bar before each set of readings.
Can you supply several units for a tender or export order?
Yes. Share the product code SCL-871/01g, quantity and destination; we supply institutions across India and international markets.
