Tuning Forks Set of 2
Tuning Forks Set of 2 (Product Code: SLE/PHY/316) is a pair of aluminium tuning forks used to show students how vibrations produce sound and how frequency relates to wavelength in school science and physics practicals. One fork is tuned to C (256Hz) and the other to B (480Hz), so learners can hear and compare two clearly different pitches side by side. The set is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

What Are the Tuning Forks Set of 2 Used For?
A struck fork vibrates at one steady frequency, which makes it an ideal source for introducing sound. Dip the prongs of a sounding fork into a beaker of water and the splash shows that sound comes from vibration; touch it to a light hanging ball and the ball is pushed away. Sounding the 256Hz fork and then the 480Hz fork lets students hear that a higher frequency gives a higher pitch.
For the frequency and wavelength lesson, remind students that sound travels at the same speed in the same air, so the B fork, vibrating faster, must produce shorter waves than the C fork. This links neatly to wave-speed calculations in a physics lab equipment course for schools in India and elsewhere. Strike the forks only on a rubber pad or soft striker, and hold them by the stem so the prongs ring freely.
OEM Manufacturer
The Tuning Forks Set of 2 is produced by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, known to customers by its trading name ScienceLab. As the original equipment manufacturer (OEM), the company makes these forks at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplies them straight to schools, colleges, dealers and importers. Quotations and repeat orders are handled by the manufacturer itself, with no trader in between. Read more on our company profile.

Frequently Asked Questions
What frequencies are the Tuning Forks Set of 2 tuned to?
The Tuning Forks Set of 2 contains one fork tuned to C at 256Hz and one tuned to B at 480Hz. Because the two frequencies are well apart, students can easily hear the difference in pitch and relate it to how fast each fork vibrates.
What material are the Tuning Forks Set of 2 made from?
Both forks in the Tuning Forks Set of 2 are made of aluminium. If your syllabus or teacher prefers steel forks, ask us about the separate steel tuning fork set listed in our physics range before you place the order.
Which experiments suit the Tuning Forks Set of 2?
The Tuning Forks Set of 2 suits introductory experiments showing that vibrations produce sound, comparing high and low pitch, and explaining why a higher frequency means a shorter wavelength. With a resonance tube or sonometer, the forks also serve as a known-frequency source.
How do I keep the Tuning Forks Set of 2 in tune?
Keep the Tuning Forks Set of 2 accurate by striking the forks only on a rubber pad or soft striker, never on hard surfaces. Do not drop or bend the prongs, and store both forks together in a dry place when they are not in use.
Who manufactures the Tuning Forks Set of 2?
Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) manufactures the Tuning Forks Set of 2 as the OEM, at its own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Buyers order directly from the maker, whether for one school or for dealers and importers.
Can the Tuning Forks Set of 2 be ordered in bulk?
Yes, the Tuning Forks Set of 2 can be quoted for single schools or larger quantities for dealers, tenders and importers in India and international markets. Send the number of sets and delivery location through the contact page for a quotation.
