Hydrostatics And Properties of Fluids
Product Code : LSK-FM-10457
Hydrostatics And Properties of Fluids bench (SKU LSK-FM-10457) is a self-contained, movable bench carrying the equipment for a wide range of demonstrations and experiments in hydrostatics and fluid properties, from Pascal's law to metacentric height. It suits lecture-room demonstrations and student practicals in engineering degree and diploma courses. Science Lab Supplies manufactures the bench and its experiment set in its Saha, Ambala factory at Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, India, and offers it directly to colleges, contractors and distributors.
Specifications
Every experiment item on the hydrostatics bench is listed separately in the table. In outline, a built-in reservoir supplies the water, a tank fills from it for free-surface work, and a drain tray returns water to the reservoir; much of the equipment is rigidly mounted, the rest free-standing for the bench top.

Applications and Experiments for the Hydrostatics and Properties of Fluids Bench
The bench brings the introductory hydrostatics syllabus to one station: pressure transmission, manometry, gauge calibration, density and specific gravity, capillarity, viscosity, buoyancy, centre of pressure and floating-body stability. It fits the first fluid mechanics lab experiments of engineering and applied science programmes, in the laboratory or the lecture room.
- B.E./B.Tech civil and mechanical: Pascal's law, manometers and Archimedes' principle; equal transmission of pressure can also be shown with the metal sphere of the Pascal's Law Demonstrator.
- Centre of pressure on a submerged surface using the toroidal tank balance.
- Metacentric height with the rectangular pontoon.
- Diploma and B.Sc. practicals: specific gravity, capillary rise and falling-sphere viscosity, compared with the capillary flow-time method of the Ostwald Viscometer.
Standard Scope of Supply
The bench is supplied with the fluid-level apparatus, two U-tube manometers, Eureka can, specific-gravity bottle, hydrometer, capillarity apparatus, falling-sphere viscometer, vernier point gauge, toroidal tank with balance, Archimedes beam balance set, Bourdon gauge with deadweight calibration, and pontoon with adjustable weights.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
A single bench can be quoted for demonstrations, or several for group work in a larger laboratory. The quotation shows packing, delivery time and price for the quantity you name, and any other engineering lab equipment in India from our fluid mechanics list can be included.
Science Lab Supplies, a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, can ship to buyers in Saudi Arabia, Oman, the Philippines, Nepal, Bangladesh and Zambia. Whether the bench is for a single lecture room or a new hydraulics laboratory, start with the contact page, gather items in the enquiry cart, or consult the lab tender page for tendered purchases.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the bench need a separate water supply?
No. It has its own reservoir that feeds the tank, and the drain tray returns water to it, so experiments run from the bench itself without a separate water connection for each session.
Can it be used for lecture demonstrations?
Yes. The bench is readily movable, so it can be moved into a lecture room for demonstrations and then used for student experiments in the laboratory.
Is Science Lab Supplies the manufacturer or a trader?
From the reservoir and drain tray to the pontoon and toroidal tank, this bench is put together at Science Lab Supplies' factory in Saha, Ambala, India, and technical questions on it are answered by the same manufacturer.
How does it compare with the single-experiment units?
It combines many hydrostatics experiments on one bench, while items such as the Metacentric Height and Stability pontoon or the Center of Pressure quadrant give each experiment its own dedicated unit.
