$ 28.20 Original price was: $ 28.20.$ 28.07Current price is: $ 28.07.
Ring and Ball Thermal Expansion Apparatus is a precision laboratory device used to determine the coefficient of thermal expansion of materials, particularly metals. The apparatus consists of a metal ring and a steel ball of known dimensions. When heated, the metal ring expands, allowing the ball to pass through at a specific temperature. This temperature corresponds to the expansion point of the ring material. The device is widely used in physics and materials science laboratories to study the thermal properties of materials and to teach fundamental concepts of thermal expansion and heat behavior.
