Pan Balance Scale Demonstration Lever
Product Code : LSK-PL-10356
Pan Balance Scale Demonstration Lever (SKU LSK-PL-10356) is a 27 cm tall lever balance with a low-friction brass pivot, a balance needle, a protractor and stainless steel pans, used to compare masses and teach torque, moments and centre of gravity. It suits mechanics lessons from middle school to Class 11. Science Lab Supplies produces this balance in its Saha, Ambala, India factory at Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, and supplies it without intermediaries to schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
A horizontal lever 26.7 cm long swings on a low-friction brass pivot above a support rod and base. The lever and rod are aluminium and steel, the base is plastic, and the 10 cm pans and their supports are stainless steel, each pan weighing 1.2 oz (about 34 g).

Applications and Experiments for the Pan Balance Demonstration Lever
The balance lets students load the pans, watch the needle against the protractor and see how unequal loads tip the lever. It supports lessons on comparing masses, levers, moments and static equilibrium in middle-school science and the rotational-motion chapter of NCERT Class 11 physics.
- Middle-school science: comparing masses and introducing the lever as a simple machine.
- Class 11 physics: principle of moments and conditions for equilibrium of a rigid body.
- Centre-of-gravity work: using the zero offset rod to show how shifting mass changes the balance point.
- Reading the protractor to relate the tilt of the lever to the difference in load.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each apparatus includes the base, support rod, mounting hardware brackets, zero offset rod, horizontal balance lever, balance needle, protractor, pan holders and pans. Masses for loading the pans are not listed as part of the set and can be quoted separately.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
A quotation can be prepared for one demonstration balance or a set for every bench. It shows packing, delivery time and price for that quantity, and a mass set or other mechanics apparatus can be priced alongside.

Frequently Asked Questions
What parts come with the demonstration lever?
The base, support rod, mounting brackets, zero offset rod, balance lever, balance needle, protractor, pan holders and stainless steel pans of 10 cm diameter.
What is the pivot made of?
The lever turns on a low-friction brass pivot point, which gives more precise balance and measurement when small differences in load are compared on the protractor.
Which topics can it be used for?
Comparing masses, torque, centre of gravity, levers, moments and static forces, from simple balance activities to the principle of moments in Class 11.
Is Science Lab Supplies a trader for this balance?
No, it is the manufacturer. The demonstration lever is made at the company's own factory in Saha, Ambala, India, and your quotation comes from that factory without a middleman.
