Product Specification Sheet
Plastic Pulley
Model Number: MT-1289
The Plastic Pulley from Micro Technologies is a lightweight mechanics laboratory apparatus designed for experiments involving force, motion, tension, suspended loads and mechanical advantage. The MT-1289 features a freely rotating plastic pulley wheel supported within a suitable frame with hook-type attachments for convenient installation in physics and mechanics experimental setups.
Product Specification
The Plastic Pulley from Micro Technologies is designed for practical laboratory investigations involving fundamental principles of mechanics, including force transmission, tension, motion and mechanical advantage. Its lightweight and compact construction makes it convenient for a wide range of pulley-based experimental arrangements.
The MT-1289 incorporates a grooved plastic pulley wheel supported within a suitable frame. The groove provides a defined running path for laboratory cord or string, allowing suspended masses and applied forces to be connected according to the required experiment.
Hook-type attachments are provided at both ends of the pulley assembly for convenient suspension and connection with laboratory stands, supports and other pulley components. This enables the apparatus to be incorporated into both simple and compound pulley configurations.
When used as a fixed pulley, the apparatus can demonstrate how a pulley changes the direction of an applied force. When combined with additional suitable pulleys, it can also support experiments involving mechanical advantage and load distribution.
The pulley is useful for investigations involving effort and load relationships, string tension, suspended masses, force direction and simple machine principles. It can be combined with mass hangers, cords and support stands to create different mechanics experiments.
The plastic wheel provides a lightweight alternative to conventional metal pulley arrangements. Its compact construction also makes the apparatus easy to handle, install and store between laboratory experiments.
Multiple pulley units may be combined to construct more advanced experimental arrangements for studying compound pulley systems and the relationship between applied effort and supported load.
Manufactured and supplied by Micro Technologies, the Plastic Pulley is suitable for physics laboratories, mechanics laboratories, engineering laboratories, research and demonstration facilities and technical training applications.
