5-Piece Specific Gravity Cylinders with Hooks - Includes Copper, Tin, Aluminum, Zinc, Stainless Steel

SKU PH0112ACB
  • 5 piece specific gravity metal cylinder set. Each cylinder features a top hook. Set includes Copper, Tin, Aluminum, Zinc, and Stainless Steel. Each cylinder has the same 0.5" (12.5mm) diameter and 30g mass but are various lengths
  • Excellent for physics classrooms. Hooked cylinders have a wide range of educational applications for all grade levels, including density investigation, specific heat and specific gravity exploration
  • Set includes a complete instruction manual that gives a background on density, specific gravity & specific heat and includes inquiry based student activities with capture sheets
  • Due to the nature of raw metals, some oxidation or corrosion due to humidity and storage may occur. Simply scuff any oxidation off to make the item look brand new again
  • Designed to be used in an educational setting and are not fabricated using ultra high precision machining. Expect tolerances in the +/- 5% range of any stated dimensions (although they are generally much tighter).

5 piece specific gravity metal cylinder set. Each cylinder features a top hook. Set includes Copper, Tin, Aluminum, Zinc, and Stainless Steel. Each cylinder has the same 0.5" (12.5mm) diameter and 30g mass but are various lengths. Since these cylinders are equipped with hooks, they can be easily lifted from boiling water. Additionally, the hooks allow each cylinder to be easily massed using a spring scale (scale not included).
