Mechanical Dynamometer with Upper and Lower Hooks
Product Code : SCL-CL-11857
Mechanical Dynamometer with Upper and Lower Hooks (SKU SCL-CL-11857) is a force meter, also known as a newton meter, reading 0–20 N with 3% accuracy. A swivel top hook suspends it and a lower hook takes the load, while a clear scale gives quick readings in physics laboratories and general weighing. From Ambala, India, Science Lab Supplies prepares quotations for it for schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors, as a laboratory equipment supplier in India.
Specifications
The 0–20 N dynamometer's specification is broken down in the rows below. In short, it measures forces up to 20 newtons, roughly the weight of 2 kg, with 3% accuracy, and carries a swivel top hook for stable suspension, a lower hook for the load and a clear scale for quick, convenient readings.

Applications and Experiments for the Mechanical Dynamometer
The meter reads pulling and hanging forces in newtons, so students can measure weight, friction, tension and buoyancy directly. Its 0–20 N range covers most loads met in school and introductory college mechanics, and it also serves as a simple balance for general weighing tasks.
- Middle and secondary science: measuring the weight of objects and distinguishing mass from weight, with the scale checked against the known steps of the Laboratory Slotted Masses, 2.5 kg.
- CBSE Class 11 physics practical: measuring the pulling force on a block to find the coefficient of friction.
- Class 9 science on floatation: measuring the loss of weight of an object immersed in water to illustrate Archimedes' principle.
- Inclined planes and simple machines: reading the force needed to hold a cart on the Laboratory Track (Inclined Plane) and the effort in lever and pulley experiments.
Standard Scope of Supply
The instrument is supplied as a single 0–20 N dynamometer with its upper swivel hook, lower load hook and scale. Weights, friction blocks and stands for mounting are separate items, and any of them can be added to the quotation for a complete force bench.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Price requests can be for one force meter or a full class set. Each quotation shows packing, delivery time and price for the quantity you specify, and school chemistry lab equipment in India from the same range, such as weights or blocks, can be added.
Under its Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Iraq, Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia and Tanzania. Tell the team how many force meters you need on the contact page, combine them with weights and blocks in the enquiry cart, or read the lab tender page before a tender.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the range and accuracy of this dynamometer?
It reads from 0 to 20 newtons with an accuracy of 3%, which covers classroom force, weight and friction measurements as well as general weighing of loads up to about 2 kg.
Is a dynamometer the same as a spring balance?
Both measure force, and in school use the terms overlap. This mechanical dynamometer shows force in newtons on its scale, which is why such instruments are also called newton meters.
Who supplies the Mechanical Dynamometer with Upper and Lower Hooks?
Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India is the source. It can list the meter on its own quotation or within a complete physics laboratory order for a school, college or contractor.
What is the swivel top hook for?
The swivel lets the meter hang freely and settle straight under the load, so the reading is stable and the scale can be turned to face the reader.
