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. Schools, colleges, STEM centres, tender contractors and distributors can order it from Science Lab Supplies, which supplies laboratory equipment from Ambala, India.
Specifications
The track is 1.2 m long, about 3 ft 11 in, and is used level or raised as an inclined plane. Two light carts are included, and each can be fitted with attachable springs. The carts are designed 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.
- 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.
Standard Scope of Supply
The set comprises the 1.2 m laboratory track and two lightweight carts with attachable springs. Stopwatches, stands for raising the track, pulleys and weights are not part of the set; any you need can be priced on the same quotation.
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. Enquiries are welcome on the contact page; the enquiry cart sends a whole list at once, and the lab tender page covers tender supply.
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.
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 in Ambala, India supplies it, for single-school purchases and as part of larger physics laboratory contracts.
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 and Friction Equipment
A track becomes a full mechanics station with a way to pull, something to slide and a way to read force. These four items are used on or beside the track in motion and friction practicals.
- Pulley with Table Clamp — fixes at the track end for string-and-weight pulls.
- Block with Hook — sliding block with different surfaces.
- Mechanical Dynamometer with Upper and Lower Hooks — reads pulling force.
- Weights with Hooks — loads to accelerate or add to the carts.
