Description
GSC International 1867
Specific Gravity Cylinders. Size 13mm diameter x 50mm length. Included in the set are one each of aluminum, steel, brass, and copper.
These four metal cylinders have equal volume but different mass to demonstrate variations in density and specific gravity. The cylinders are 13mm diameter x 50mm length. Included in the set are one each of aluminum, steel, brass, and copper. These are also called specific gravity cylinders or equal volume cylinders.
The true densities for these density cylinders are:
Aluminum - 2,700 kg/m3
Brass - 8,600 kg/m3
Steel - 7,874 kg/m3
Copper - 8,960 kg/m3.
Material Variety for Comprehensive Learning
Explore the distinct properties of metals with true densities: Aluminum: 2,700 kg/m³
Brass: 8,600 kg/m³
Steel: 7,874 kg/m³
Copper: 8,960 kg/m³
Engaging Demonstrations of Density and Specific Gravity
Perfect for science classrooms, this set includes four metal cylinders—aluminum, steel, brass, and copper—that have identical dimensions but varying masses, making it easy to illustrate concepts of density and specific gravity in a hands-on way. Precise, Equal-Volume Design
Each cylinder measures 13mm in diameter and 50mm in length, ensuring consistent volume for accurate comparisons of density among the different metals. Versatile Use Across Science Topics
Ideal for lessons on material science, physical properties of matter, and the relationship between mass, volume, and density, this set brings theoretical concepts to life. Durable and Long-Lasting for Classroom Use
Made from high-quality metals, these cylinders are built to withstand repeated handling and experiments, making them a reliable addition to any science teacher’s toolkit.
