Electromagnet Set
Product Code : LSK-PL-10310
Electromagnet Set (SKU LSK-PL-10310) shows how the strength of a magnetic field depends on electric current: students power the electromagnet and count how many hooked masses it can lift. It is built for school physics lessons on the magnetic effect of current, electromagnetic induction and magnetic force. Each set is assembled at the Science Lab Supplies factory, Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, India, which manufactures it and quotes schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors directly.
Specifications
Every part of the lifting set appears as a row in the table below. In short, the electromagnet hangs from a cross rod held by a support clamp with a hook, nine hooked masses give a simple measure of lifting force, and two D batteries in a D-cell holder power it through toothed alligator-clip leads.

Applications and Experiments for the Electromagnet Set
The set turns an abstract idea, that current produces magnetism, into a count of lifted masses. Students can switch the supply on and off to see the field appear and vanish, and count the masses held each time, which links directly to school magnetism and electricity topics.
- NCERT Class 7–8 science: making and testing an electromagnet, and mapping the field near its ends with a Plotting Compass.
- Class 10 physics (Magnetic Effects of Electric Current): current and field strength.
- Class 12 physics (Electromagnetic Induction): following on to induced currents with the Faraday's and Lenz's law Demonstration Set.
- Comparing an electromagnet with a permanent magnet in the same lesson.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each set comprises the electromagnet with its cross rod, a support clamp and hook, a set of nine hooked masses, one pack of five toothed alligator-clip leads, a D-cell battery holder and two D batteries. These contents cover the basic lifting experiment described above.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Sets can be quoted singly for a demonstration table or in quantity so each student group has its own. The quotation from Science Lab Supplies gives packing, delivery time and price for the number requested, and magnets or motors from the same range can be listed alongside.
Science Lab Supplies holds an Importer-Exporter Code and, as a registered exporter, can ship to buyers in South Africa, Qatar, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Malaysia and Peru. A class order for these sets can be started on the contact page, assembled in the enquiry cart, or entered through the lab tender page where a formal tender applies.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are batteries included with the Electromagnet Set?
Yes. The set includes a D-cell battery holder and two D batteries, together with a pack of five alligator-clip leads, so it can be connected and tested as soon as it arrives.
What does the electromagnet experiment show?
It shows that an electric current produces a magnetic field whose strength can be judged by the number of hooked masses lifted, and that the field disappears when the current is switched off.
Is Science Lab Supplies the manufacturer or a trader?
The lifting set is a factory product of Science Lab Supplies: it is manufactured in Saha, Ambala, India, and the quotation, packing and dispatch are all arranged from that same factory.
How many masses come with the set?
There are nine hooked masses. They hang from the electromagnet one after another, letting students record how many are held before the magnetic force is no longer enough.
