Beam And Leaf Spring
Product Code : LSK-MTE-10504
Beam And Leaf Spring (SKU LSK-MTE-10504) is a two-in-one test kit for a testing machine: it bends test beams on knife-edge supports and deflects a heavy-duty leaf spring of vehicle-suspension design. Mechanical, civil and automobile engineering students use it for load-deflection practicals. Science Lab Supplies, a laboratory equipment manufacturer in India, fabricates the kit at Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, and supplies it to colleges, tender contractors and distributors from the same site.
Specifications
A heavy-duty box-section support beam sits under the specimens. For beam tests, two adjustable knife-edge supports fixed to it form a simply supported beam; for spring tests, the leaf spring rests on its rollers on two flat supports. The testing machine applies the compressive force and measures deflection.

Applications and Experiments for the Beam And Leaf Spring Kit
With the beams, students relate applied force to deflection for different test beams and spans, then check their results against beam theory. With the leaf spring, the same force and deflection readings give the actual spring rate of a real suspension component.
- B.E./B.Tech civil and mechanical: deflection of simply supported beams in strength of materials.
- Automobile and mechanical engineering: leaf spring rate and suspension behaviour.
- Diploma engineering and TVET modules: load-deflection graphs and comparison with theory.
Standard Scope of Supply
The kit includes the box-section support beam, two knife-edge supports, two flat supports, the leaf spring with rollers and the spanner and hexagon tools needed to fix the parts to the testing machine. Not included: the testing machine, which applies force and measures deflection. Ask us to confirm which test beams are listed for your order.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
A quotation can cover one kit or one for every machine in the department. It sets out the packing, delivery time and price for that quantity, and the testing machine or a Coil Spring kit can be added so all parts of the practical arrive together.
Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Nepal, Bangladesh, Zambia, Rwanda, South Africa and Qatar as a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code. The business is registered under Udyam as a manufacturing enterprise (UDYAM-HR-01-0014546) and for GST (GSTIN 06ADEPJ0574F2ZU). Enquiries go through the contact page or enquiry cart, and the lab tender page covers engineering lab equipment in India bought by tender.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the beam span be changed?
Yes. Students adjust the position of the knife-edge supports on the support beam to set the length of beam under test, and repeat the test at different spans.
What result does the leaf spring test give?
The testing machine compresses the leaf spring and measures its deflection; students use the force and deflection values to find the actual leaf spring rate of a vehicle-type suspension spring.
Is this kit made by Science Lab Supplies?
It is. Science Lab Supplies manufactures the kit in Saha, Ambala, and colleges and contractors get their quotation straight from the makers.
Are tools needed to fit it to the machine?
The spanner and hexagon tools needed to fix the parts to the testing machine are included with the kit.
