Low Friction Platform Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : EL-SLE-5757
Jlab Export is a leading Low Friction Platform Manufacturer,and suppliers in India
Low Friction Platform (code EL-SLE-5757) is a robustly built low-friction platform for mechanics demonstrations in school and college physics labs. It is made from a heavy wooden board 60 cm long and is meant for use on the floor or on a standard laboratory stool. With friction kept low, the effect of a push or pull is not lost to drag. It is made by Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd (JLab) at its works in Ambala, India.

What Is a Low Friction Platform Used For?
When friction is small, a push in one direction produces a clear recoil in the other, so a low-friction platform is used to demonstrate action and reaction and the conservation of momentum — core ideas of the class 9 “force and laws of motion” chapter — and in college mechanics teaching. Keep the board clean and dry, check it sits level before each demonstration, and store it flat so the wood does not warp.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a low friction platform used for?
For mechanics demonstrations in which friction would otherwise hide the result, such as showing action and reaction or conservation of momentum to a class.
What size is the platform?
The board is listed as 60 cm long. The listing also gives a 75 cm broad plank, which is wider than the stated length, so confirm the dimensions with JLab before ordering.
Where is it used — on the floor or on a stool?
Either: it is listed for use on the floor or on a standard laboratory stool, so it can be set up wherever the demonstration needs it.
Who manufactures it?
Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, trading as JLab, makes it at its works in Ambala, Haryana, India.
OEM Manufacturer
JLab is the trading name of Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, a physics and general science lab equipment manufacturer in India, incorporated in 2017 and based on Hargolal Road, Ambala, Haryana. The platform is built in JLab’s own workshop rather than bought from a trader, so schools, colleges, dealers and importers order factory-direct, each one is inspected by eye before dispatch, and repeat orders come back to the maker. JLab exports worldwide and ships to buyers in every region — for example the Netherlands in Western Europe, Angola in Central Africa, Bahrain in the Middle East, Finland in Northern Europe and Turkmenistan in Central Asia. Tender information is on the JLab lab tenders page.
