Product Specification Sheet
Triple Parallel Plastic Pulley
Model Number: MT-1291
The Triple Parallel Plastic Pulley from Micro Technologies is a lightweight mechanics laboratory apparatus featuring three plastic pulley wheels arranged parallel to each other within a common supporting frame. The MT-1291 is suitable for experiments involving mechanical advantage, force, tension, load distribution and compound pulley arrangements.
Product Specification
The Triple Parallel Plastic Pulley from Micro Technologies is designed for physics and mechanics laboratory experiments requiring a multiple-pulley arrangement for studying force, tension and mechanical advantage. Its three-wheel configuration provides greater flexibility for constructing compound pulley systems than single or double pulley units.
The MT-1291 incorporates three grooved plastic pulley wheels positioned parallel to one another within a common supporting frame. The pulley grooves provide suitable running paths for laboratory cords or strings used in different mechanics experimental arrangements.
The triple-pulley configuration is particularly useful for constructing compound pulley and block-and-tackle systems. When combined with another suitable pulley block, the apparatus enables different supporting cord arrangements to be investigated.
Hook-type attachment points are provided for convenient suspension or connection with laboratory stands, supports and other pulley units. This allows the pulley to be configured as part of fixed or movable pulley arrangements depending on the experiment.
The apparatus can be used to investigate fundamental mechanics concepts such as effort, load, tension, force direction, load distribution and mechanical advantage. Different arrangements can be assembled to compare theoretical pulley-system relationships with experimental observations.
The three parallel grooves allow multiple sections of cord to be incorporated into suitable compound systems. This makes the apparatus useful for demonstrating how pulley arrangements can alter the relationship between applied effort and supported load.
Plastic pulley wheels help maintain a lightweight construction, making the apparatus convenient to handle and install during laboratory experiments. The supporting frame keeps the pulley wheels correctly aligned during use.
Its compact configuration also allows the MT-1291 to be stored easily alongside other mechanics accessories such as mass hangers, cords, laboratory stands and additional pulley blocks.
Manufactured and supplied by Micro Technologies, the Triple Parallel Plastic Pulley is suitable for physics laboratories, mechanics laboratories, engineering laboratories, research and demonstration facilities and technical training applications.
