Multipurpose Pulley on Clamp
Model Number: MTM-21
The Multipurpose Pulley on Clamp from Micro Technologies is a versatile laboratory pulley assembly featuring a 70 mm diameter aluminium pulley mounted in a metal bracket with two clamping screws. The pulley runs on a ball-bearing mechanism for smooth rotation, while the bracket can be clamped to a bench edge up to 38 mm thick or attached to a laboratory surface through its 13 mm diameter support rod.
Product Specification
The Multipurpose Pulley on Clamp from Micro Technologies is designed for physics and mechanics laboratory applications requiring a versatile pulley that can be conveniently mounted to a bench or suitable laboratory support.
The apparatus incorporates an aluminium pulley approximately 70 mm in diameter. Its practical size makes it suitable for a variety of cord-based force, tension, load and motion experiments.
The pulley is mounted within a metal bracket equipped with two clamping screws. This arrangement provides a convenient method for securely positioning the pulley during experimental work.
A ball-bearing mechanism supports smooth rotation of the pulley wheel. Reduced rotational resistance helps provide consistent pulley movement during mechanics demonstrations and quantitative experiments.
One of the key advantages of this apparatus is its multipurpose mounting arrangement. The metal bracket can be clamped directly to the edge of a laboratory bench, making it convenient for temporary experimental setups.
The clamp is suitable for a bench edge up to approximately 38 mm thick. The clamping screw enables the bracket to be tightened securely against the supporting surface.
The apparatus can also be attached to a suitable laboratory surface or support arrangement through its 13 mm diameter rod, providing an alternative installation method when bench-edge mounting is not appropriate.
This dual mounting capability makes the pulley useful across different laboratory configurations. The same apparatus can therefore be adapted to various mechanics experiments without requiring a permanently fixed installation.
The pulley can be used with cords and compatible laboratory masses to investigate force, tension, motion and equilibrium. A cord can be routed over the wheel while loads are applied to one or both ends according to the experimental procedure.
For mechanical advantage and load investigations, the pulley may be incorporated into suitable fixed-pulley or combined pulley arrangements.
The apparatus can also complement Spring Balances and force-measuring instruments where tension or applied force needs to be observed while a cord passes over the pulley.
Its bench-mounted configuration is particularly useful for experiments where a cord needs to pass from the horizontal laboratory surface to a vertically suspended load.
The adjustable mounting system enables the pulley to be positioned according to the geometry of the experimental setup, while the rigid bracket helps maintain alignment during normal operation.
The Multipurpose Pulley on Clamp can be combined with mass hangers, slotted masses, cords, Spring Balances and other mechanics apparatus to create a wide variety of experimental arrangements.
Manufactured and supplied by Micro Technologies, the Multipurpose Pulley on Clamp is suitable for physics laboratories, mechanics laboratories and scientific facilities requiring an adaptable pulley assembly for routine experimental work.
