Choose this stainless-steel set when you want the full octave in a case with its own hammer. The chrome-plated set comes in a pouch, the aluminium set has engraved note letters and frequencies, and the resonance box with a single mounted fork suits loud classroom demonstrations of one note.
What Are the Tuning Forks Used For?
A tuning fork vibrates at one steady frequency when struck, so a set of eight gives students known notes to work with. In class 9 lessons on sound they show that a vibrating body produces sound and that a higher frequency gives a higher pitch. In senior-secondary and college practicals the forks drive the sonometer experiment, where the resonating length of a stretched string is compared for forks of different frequency, and the resonance tube experiment, where the resonating length of an air column gives the speed of sound in air. Because 512 Hz is twice 256 Hz, the top and bottom forks also show what an octave means.
Strike a fork on the hammer or on a rubber pad, never on a bench, metal stand or another fork, as hard knocks can damage the prongs and shift the frequency. Hold it by the stem so your hand does not damp the prongs, and put it back in the case after use. Stainless steel resists rust, but the forks should still be wiped dry before storage.
What to Specify When Ordering
- Number of sets — the minimum order is 10 units; each unit is a set of 8 forks with case and hammer.
- Fork frequencies and markings — the listing gives the 256 to 512 Hz range but not each fork’s frequency or marking; ask JLab if your practical file needs particular values.
- Practical apparatus — a sonometer, resonance tube and rubber pad can be added to the same enquiry.
Frequently Asked Questions
What frequencies does this tuning fork set cover?
The eight forks cover 256 Hz to 512 Hz, which is one octave. The listing does not give the frequency of each individual fork, so ask JLab if you need the full list.
What are the forks made of?
Stainless steel, which does not rust in normal lab use and keeps its finish.
Is a resonance box included?
The set is supplied in a case listed as a resonance box, together with a hammer. If you need a fork mounted on its own wooden resonance box, JLab lists that separately.
Which experiments use these tuning forks?
Sound and pitch demonstrations, the sonometer experiment on vibrating strings, and the resonance tube experiment to find the speed of sound in air.
How should a tuning fork be struck?
Use the hammer supplied or a rubber pad. Striking it on a hard surface can damage the prongs and change its frequency.
What information is needed for an export quotation?
Send the number of sets, the destination country and port or city, your preferred delivery terms (for example FOB or CIF), any packing or labelling requirements, and the tender reference if there is one.
Who manufactures these tuning forks?
Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd (JLab) makes them at its works in Ambala, Haryana, India, and quotes for them as the manufacturer.
OEM Manufacturer
JLab is the trading name of Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, a sound, optics and general physics lab equipment manufacturer in India, incorporated in 2017 and located on Hargolal Road, Ambala, Haryana. The tuning fork sets are produced at JLab’s own works and not bought from a trader, so schools, colleges, dealers and importers deal with the maker, every set is checked by eye before packing, and repeat orders are handled by the manufacturer itself. It is registered under MSME Udyam registration UDYAM-HR-01-0003849 (manufacturing enterprise) and holds Importer-Exporter Code 3317504552. JLab exports worldwide and ships to buyers in every region — for example Kazakhstan in Central Asia, Mexico in North America, Australia in Oceania, South Korea in East Asia and Brunei in Southeast Asia. Tender buyers can see the JLab lab tenders page.
Apparatus Used with Tuning Forks
- Sonometer — for studying how the pitch of a stretched string depends on its length and tension.
- Resonance Tube Apparatus — for finding the speed of sound from the resonating air column.
- Rubber Pad — a black rubber pad for striking the forks safely.
- Slinky Spring — a wave helix for showing the longitudinal waves that carry sound.
