Simple Lever
Model Number: MTM-110
The Simple Lever is a laboratory mechanics apparatus used for practical investigations involving moments, forces, equilibrium, and the mechanical principles of levers. Micro Technologies supplies this apparatus with a one-meter graduated lever marked in millimetres and numbered in centimetres for convenient position measurement. Regularly spaced drilled points allow loads and accessories to be attached at selected locations along the lever. The set includes multiple riders and pins, allowing one pin to serve as the fulcrum while the remaining components function as mass hangers. Its straightforward construction makes it useful for repeated experimental setups in physics laboratories, universities, colleges, research facilities, and institutional laboratory environments.
Product Specification
The Simple Lever is a practical physics laboratory apparatus used to investigate the relationship between force, distance, moments, and equilibrium. Its one-meter lever provides sufficient working length for positioning loads at different distances from the fulcrum, allowing users to observe how changes in force and lever arm influence rotational effects. The graduated surface is marked in millimetres and numbered in centimetres, making load and pivot positions easy to identify during experimental work.
Drilled points are provided at regular intervals along the lever, approximately every 2 cm, allowing riders, pins, and hanging loads to be positioned systematically. This arrangement supports multiple experimental configurations without requiring complicated attachments. The supplied pins can be used to establish a fulcrum and suspension points, while the riders facilitate controlled positioning during practical investigations.
Micro Technologies supplies the Simple Lever with emphasis on dimensional consistency, clear graduations, reliable construction, and ease of handling. Its uncomplicated mechanical arrangement allows the apparatus to be assembled, adjusted, and reset efficiently between experiments. The absence of complex moving mechanisms also keeps maintenance requirements low and contributes to dependable long-term use.
The apparatus can be used for studying the principle of moments, conditions of equilibrium, clockwise and anticlockwise moments, mechanical advantage, lever arms, force-distance relationships, and basic statics. Clearly defined measurement positions help users establish repeatable experimental configurations and compare observations across different load arrangements.
For laboratories requiring straightforward and reusable mechanics equipment, the Simple Lever provides strong procurement value. Its durable construction, readable measuring scale, replaceable accessories, and flexible experimental configuration make it suitable for physics laboratories, institutional projects, laboratory equipment distributors, and bulk procurement requirements.

FAQs
What is a Simple Lever used for?
A Simple Lever is used for practical experiments involving force, moments, equilibrium, and lever principles. It allows loads to be positioned at measured distances from a fulcrum so that different mechanical relationships can be investigated.
What is the length of the lever?
The standard lever is approximately one meter long. This provides a practical working range for placing the fulcrum and loads at different positions during moment and equilibrium experiments.
How is the Simple Lever graduated?
The lever is graduated in millimetres and numbered in centimetres. These markings allow the distance between the fulcrum and applied loads to be determined conveniently during experimental work.
Why are holes provided along the lever?
The regularly spaced holes provide convenient attachment positions for pins, riders, and load arrangements. They allow the experimental configuration to be changed systematically when studying different force and distance combinations.
Does the apparatus require calibration?
The apparatus primarily uses a graduated linear scale rather than an electronic measuring system. Users should periodically inspect the graduation markings and verify dimensional positions when measurement traceability is required.
What accessories are supplied with the lever?
The standard arrangement includes three riders and associated pins. Depending on the experimental configuration, one can be used for establishing the fulcrum while the remaining components support load or mass-hanging arrangements.
Is the Simple Lever suitable for repeated laboratory use?
Yes. Its straightforward mechanical construction is suitable for regular laboratory handling. Keeping the graduations readable and checking the holes, riders, and pins periodically helps maintain reliable operation.
Can Simple Levers be ordered in bulk?
Yes. Bulk supply can be arranged for universities, colleges, laboratory projects, scientific equipment distributors, procurement organizations, and other institutional requirements.
Can the lever dimensions be customized?
Custom dimensions, graduation arrangements, or accessory configurations may be considered for suitable order quantities. Buyers can provide their required specifications when requesting a quotation.
How should the Simple Lever be maintained?
Keep the lever clean and dry and avoid bending or placing excessive loads on it. Periodically inspect the graduations, drilled positions, riders, pins, and fulcrum arrangement for damage or excessive wear.
How is the apparatus packed for transportation?
The long lever and smaller accessories can be packed securely to minimize movement and physical damage during transportation. Bulk and export packaging can be arranged according to order requirements.
What is the delivery timeline for bulk orders?
Dispatch schedules depend on required quantity, customization, production availability, and destination. Buyers can request estimated manufacturing and delivery details along with their commercial quotation.
