Laboratory Track (Inclined Plane)
Product Code : SCL-CL-11859
Laboratory Track (Inclined Plane) (SKU SCL-CL-11859) is a 1.2 m physics track supplied with two lightweight carts that take attachable springs. Set at an angle, it lets students watch objects slide or roll down the slope to study linear motion, gravity and friction, and to calculate the coefficient of kinetic friction. A quotation for the track can be raised by Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India, for schools, colleges, STEM centres, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
All details of the 1.2 m track and its carts are tabulated below. In short, the track is about 3 ft 11 in long and works as an inclined plane, and the two included carts are lightweight, take attachable springs and are made to run on the inclined plane for motion and friction investigations.

Applications and Experiments for the Laboratory Track
The track is a classic mechanics apparatus for measuring how objects move under gravity on a slope. Students time carts over marked distances, change the angle, and compare rolling with sliding to separate the effects of gravity and friction, from secondary school through first-year college physics.
- NCERT Class 9 science, motion: distance, speed and uniform acceleration of a cart down a slope, with one end of the track raised on a Ring Stand Set with Accessories.
- CBSE Class 11 physics: the component of gravity along an inclined plane and its dependence on angle.
- Friction studies: finding the coefficient of kinetic friction from the angle and acceleration.
- Momentum and collisions: two carts with attachable springs interacting on a level track, with extra load from the Laboratory Slotted Masses, 2.5 kg.
Standard Scope of Supply
The set comprises the 1.2 m laboratory track and two lightweight carts with attachable springs. Stopwatches, a stand for raising the track, pulleys and weights can be priced on the same quotation, so a complete motion and friction station arrives together.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
You can ask for one track for teacher demonstrations or several for group practicals. The quotation lists packing, delivery time and price for that number, and pulleys, friction blocks or other school chemistry lab equipment in India can be added.
With an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Uganda and the UAE. A price for one track or a full set of motion stations is a message away on the contact page; longer lists fit the enquiry cart, and tendering bodies can start from the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long is the track and how many carts come with it?
The track is 1.2 m long and two lightweight carts are included. Each cart can take attachable springs, so the pair can be used for collision and interaction work as well as runs down the slope.
Can the track be used as an inclined plane?
Yes. It is designed to be raised at one end so objects slide or roll down it, and the carts are compatible with the inclined arrangement.
Who supplies the Laboratory Track (Inclined Plane)?
Science Lab Supplies takes care of it from Ambala, India, covering single-school purchases as well as larger physics laboratory contracts placed by contractors and distributors.
What can students calculate with it?
Typical results are speed and acceleration down the slope, the effect of the angle, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between a moving object and the track.
Related Motion, Friction and Inclined Plane Apparatus
A track becomes a full mechanics station with a way to pull, something to slide and a way to read force. These seven items from the Chemistry Lab and Applied Mechanics ranges are used on or beside the track, or offer other inclined-plane and trolley formats.
- Pulley with Table Clamp — height-adjustable clamp pulley that keeps the string parallel to the track.
- Block with Hook — shows that added weight increases friction and the pulling force needed.
- Mechanical Dynamometer with Upper and Lower Hooks — swivel-hook force meter reading up to 20 N.
- Weights with Hooks — ten hooked masses totalling 3.8 kg.
- Fletcher Trolley — trolley with removable cylindrical weights on 150 cm steel rails, with a vibrator and pulley.
- Inclined Plane Brass — 15 x 60 cm glass-topped board clamped at any angle up to 45 degrees.
- Inclined Plane, Euro — grooved wooden track with trolley on a metal support.
