Product Code : SCL-PLE-12350
The Friction Demonstration Device (Tribometer) (SKU SCL-PLE-12350) is a tribometer friction apparatus with an inclined plane for studying sliding and rolling friction in school physics. It has an 81.5 x 10 x 2 cm wooden plane that can be set at angles from 0 to 45 degrees, a small 200 g cart, a friction roller at one end of the plane and a set of 10-100 g weights. JaincoLab supplies it for friction and inclined-plane practicals.
Specifications
The tribometer consists of a wooden base of 81.5 x 10 x 2 cm that rests at angles from 0 to 45 degrees on a standard metal rack with a 50 cm base, a 10 x 8 x 4 cm cart of 200 g, a small friction roller fixed at one end, a scale pan with 10-100 g weights and an S-shaped holder.

Applications of the tribometer friction apparatus
The tribometer is used to measure the force needed to move a body along a surface, either with the plane horizontal and a load pulling over the roller, or with the plane tilted until the body begins to slide.
- Measuring the coefficient of static and sliding friction
- Finding the angle of repose by tilting the plane between 0 and 45 degrees
- Comparing sliding friction with the rolling friction of the cart
- Studying the effect of normal load on friction by adding weights
- Friction and inclined-plane practicals in secondary-school physics
