Tuning Forks Set

Product Code : EL-LS-4984
Jlab Export is a leading Tuning Forks Set Manufacturer,and suppliers in India

Tuning Forks Set (code EL-LS-4984) is a set of eight aluminium alloy tuning forks of different frequencies, from 256 Hz (C) to 512 Hz (C), used for sound experiments and acoustic research in school, college and university physics labs. Each fork is engraved with its note letter and frequency, so students can identify it at a glance. It is made by Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd (JLab) at its works in Ambala, India.

Choose this set when you want a full eight-note octave in aluminium alloy with both the note letter and the frequency engraved on every fork. The stainless steel set suits buyers who prefer steel forks with a case and hammer listed, and the four-fork set suits buyers who need fewer forks.

What Is the Tuning Forks Set Used For?

A struck tuning fork vibrates at one fixed frequency, which makes it a reliable reference source for sound practicals. With eight known frequencies, this set lets students repeat a measurement at several pitches and plot the results — for example in the class 11 physics practicals that use a resonance tube to find the speed of sound in air, and a sonometer to study how the frequency of a stretched wire depends on its length. In lower classes the forks show that sound is produced by vibration and that higher notes come from faster vibrations.

The eight frequencies form the notes of a major scale on C: the ratio of each fork to the first follows the classical just-intonation scale, and the top C at 512 Hz vibrates exactly twice as fast as the bottom C at 256 Hz, so the pair demonstrates an octave directly. This makes the set useful in acoustics and music-related physics lessons as well as in college physics labs and research on sound.

What to Specify When Ordering

  • Fork material — this aluminium alloy set or the stainless steel set.
  • Quantity — the minimum order is 10 units.
  • Companion apparatus — resonance tube apparatus, sonometers and a resonance box with tuning fork are separate catalogue items that can be quoted on the same enquiry.

Frequently Asked Questions

What frequencies are in this tuning fork set?
Eight: 256 Hz (C), 288 Hz (D), 320 Hz (E), 341.3 Hz (F), 384 Hz (G), 426.6 Hz (A), 480 Hz (B) and 512 Hz (C). Each fork is engraved with its note letter and frequency.

Why does the set end at 512 Hz?
Because 512 Hz is exactly double 256 Hz. Doubling the frequency raises a note by one octave, so the first and last forks are both C, one octave apart, and the set covers one complete octave.

Which physics practicals use these tuning forks?
Tuning forks of known frequency are used in the class 11 resonance tube experiment to find the speed of sound in air and in sonometer experiments on the relation between frequency and the length of a stretched wire, as well as in general sound demonstrations.

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 needs, and the tender reference if the order is for a tender.

Who manufactures this tuning forks set?
Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, trading as JLab, makes it at its works in Ambala, Haryana, India, and quotes for it directly.

OEM Manufacturer

JLab is the trading name of Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, a maker of physics lab equipment for schools and colleges in India, incorporated in 2017 and based on Hargolal Road, Ambala, Haryana. This set is produced at JLab’s own works rather than bought from a trader, so schools, colleges, dealers and importers buy it factory-direct, every set is visually inspected before dispatch, and replacement sets on repeat order come from the same manufacturer. JLab holds MSME Udyam registration UDYAM-HR-01-0003849 (manufacturing enterprise) and Importer-Exporter Code 3317504552. JLab exports worldwide and ships to buyers in every region — for example Congo in Central Africa, South Africa in Southern Africa, Bulgaria in Eastern Europe, Uganda in East Africa and Tajikistan in Central Asia. Tender buyers can refer to the JLab lab tenders page.

Sound and Resonance Apparatus

  • Resonance Apparatus — a resonance tube set for finding the speed of sound in air with a tuning fork and water.
  • Sonometer — a stretched-string apparatus on a hollow box for studying how pitch depends on length and tension.
  • Resonance Box with Tuning Fork — a wooden resonance box with a mounted fork and a rubber hammer.
