Wooden Block

Product Code : SCL-318/057

Wooden Block (Product Code: SCL-318/057) is a plain, square brown wooden block, 2 cm high, used as the sliding body in friction experiments and as a support or spacer on the physics lab bench. Schools buy it in class quantities for friction and inclined-plane practicals. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India, alongside its other mechanics lab equipment.

What Is the Wooden Block Used For?

In friction practicals the block rests on a horizontal surface or an inclined plane and is pulled with a spring balance, or by weights hung over a pulley, until it just begins to move. Loading it with slotted masses shows how friction changes with the normal force, and its flat square faces give a steady contact area while its 2 cm height keeps it low and stable.

The block also serves as a spacer under one end of a board or track, a stop at the foot of a ramp, or a rest that raises small apparatus. Keep its faces clean and dry and use the same face when comparing surfaces, so that each trial compares materials rather than dust.

OEM Manufacturer

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, is the OEM of this wooden block and makes it at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Buying from the manufacturer lets a school or dealer order blocks in class quantities with its friction and inclined-plane apparatus, and repeat orders are handled by the same maker; ask us about quantities.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size is the Wooden Block?
The Wooden Block (SCL-318/057) is square in shape with a height of 2 cm. Other dimensions are not listed, so ask through the ScienceLab contact page if your experiment needs a particular face size or mass.

What is the Wooden Block used for?
The Wooden Block is mainly used as the sliding body in friction experiments, pulled across a surface or inclined plane with a spring balance or hanging weights. It also works as a spacer, stop or support on the physics lab bench.

What is the Wooden Block made of?
The Wooden Block is made of plain brown wood. Wood gives a light, flat-faced block whose friction against different surfaces can be compared easily, and it is gentle on the glass or metal apparatus it rests against.

How should the Wooden Block be cared for?
Keep the Wooden Block dry and away from standing water, since soaking can swell or warp the wood and change its friction behaviour. Wipe dust off the faces before friction readings so every trial starts from the same surface.

Who manufactures the Wooden Block?
Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) manufactures the Wooden Block as the OEM at its own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Class quantities are dispatched factory-direct, and repeat orders are handled by the same manufacturer.

Can the Wooden Block be ordered in class quantities?
Yes, the Wooden Block can be ordered in class quantities for school and college labs in India and international markets. Send the product code SCL-318/057 and the number of blocks; quotations come straight from the manufacturer.
