Torsion (Barton's) Apparatus Vertical Pattern
ApparatusVerticalPattern.jpg)
Product Code : EL-AM-10320
The Torsion (Barton's) Apparatus Vertical Pattern from Lab Exports has a steel frame mounted on a heavy cast iron base with leveling screws. The upper end of the rod under test (900 mm length, 5 mm diameter) is clamped by a 3-jaw chuck, and the lower end is clamped into the axis of a torsional drum, which can be rotated by loading a scale pan passing over two frictionless pulleys. Three pointers for clamping to the test rod are provided, along with three freely sliding circular scales graduated in single degrees that can be clamped at any position. It is complete with three test rods, strings and two scale pans, but supplied without weights. Lab Exports manufactures and exports this apparatus from India to schools, colleges and laboratories worldwide.
