Surface Tension Balance Searle’s
A horizontal frame is mounted on a rod fitted to a base & carries a steel wire stretched across it, the tension of which can be adjusted by a tightening screw. A lightweight metal pointer with a counterpoise is attached to the centre of the wire by a clamp. A pan is hung from a notch in the pointer and has a hook at its underside from which can be suspended a lightweight rectangular frame or a metal clip to hold a micro slide edge. The tip of the pointer moves over a graduated scale. With rectangular wire frame, slide clip, six micro slides and 3 meters of spare wire.

Magdeburg Pressure Disks
The set consists of two plastic, 10cm-diameter hemispheres. Each half has a wooden handle firmly attached to it. One of the hemispheres has a raised edge to hold a rubber seal, while the other hemisphere has a stopcock for attaching to vacuum tubing. Join the hemispheres, hook them up to a vacuum pump, and evacuate the air inside the hemispheres. You will find it hard to pull them apart. Open the stopcock to let air in and the hemispheres will separate easily.

Linear Expansion
A high-quality apparatus to determine precisely co-efficient of expansion of various metals. An aluminium channel carries a 60 cm long metal rod enclosed in a heating jacket having three nipples for water intake, water outlet and thermometer insertion. Dial indicator is a precision instrument sensitive to 0.01 mm/division and is securely mounted. As the apparatus works with hot water, there is no danger from any steam escaping and causing burns on the skin. Complete with four expansion rods of steel, brass, copper and aluminium.
