Wooden Machine Pulley Model
Product Code : LSK-PL-10357
Wooden Machine Pulley Model (SKU LSK-PL-10357) is a classroom model of three pulleys mounted on a wooden base, with string and an instruction manual, that shows how using several pulleys increases mechanical advantage. It suits simple-machines lessons in middle school and the machines topic in secondary physics. The model is manufactured by Science Lab Supplies in its Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area workshop at Saha, Ambala, India, from where quotations go directly to schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors.

Applications and Experiments for the Wooden Pulley Model
By threading the string over one, two or three pulleys, students can see how the effort needed to lift a load falls as more rope segments share it. The model can be used qualitatively for discovery lessons or quantitatively to calculate mechanical advantage, and its layout suits inquiry-based activities.
- Middle-school science: introducing pulleys as simple machines that change the direction or size of a force, compared with the Inclined Plane, Economy.
- ICSE Class 10 physics (machines): mechanical advantage, velocity ratio and efficiency of pulley systems, set beside the two grooved wheels of the Wheel And Axle, On Stand.
- Inquiry projects: predicting and then testing how many pulleys give a chosen reduction in effort.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each model comes with three pulleys mounted on its wooden base, the string needed to rig them, and an instruction manual written to guide both students and teachers through the apparatus. Loads or a spring balance for measured work can be added to the same quotation.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Request a price for a single model or for one per student group. The quotation sets out packing, delivery time and price for that number, and extra pulleys or mass sets can join the same quotation for one combined delivery to your school or college.
Science Lab Supplies holds an Importer-Exporter Code as a registered exporter and is able to ship to buyers in Vietnam, Malaysia, Peru, Egypt, Iraq and Nigeria. A simple-machines list can be sent in via the contact page or put together in the enquiry cart; for an open tender, the lab tender page sets out what to send.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many pulleys does the model have?
Three pulleys are mounted on the wooden base, so students can compare a single pulley with two- and three-pulley arrangements using the string supplied with the model.
What is the model made of and how big is it?
It is made of particle board and wooden components, with a 6½ x 3½ in base and a height of 16¼ in (about 41 cm), in a sturdy build for classroom use.
Is there guidance for teachers?
Yes. An instruction manual is included to guide students and teachers through qualitative and quantitative activities with the model, including inquiry-based work and calculations of mechanical advantage.
Where is the pulley model made?
Its base, frame and pulleys are made and assembled in the Science Lab Supplies factory in Saha, Ambala, India, so the manufacturer prices and quotes the model directly, with no trading house involved.
