Hydraulic Press Model
Product Code : SCL-PLE-11632
Quick Answer: The Hydraulic Press Model has two pistons of different cross-sectional area joined by transparent tubing in a closed hydraulic circuit, showing how Pascal’s law lets a small force on one piston give a larger force on the other; it measures 200mm x 150mm x 250mm.

Technical Specifications
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| Pistons | Two, with different cross-sectional areas |
| Hydraulic circuit | Closed reservoir with transparent tubing |
| Materials | Reinforced polymer and corrosion-resistant metal alloy |
| Dimensions | 200mm x 150mm x 250mm |
How It Is Used
Pressing the small piston pushes fluid through the tubing and raises the large piston with a greater force, because the pressure is the same throughout the enclosed fluid. Comparing how far each piston moves also shows that the larger force comes with a smaller movement.
Frequently Asked Questions
What principle does the Hydraulic Press Model demonstrate?
Pascal's law. Pressure applied to the enclosed fluid is passed on equally, so with P = F/A the larger piston delivers a larger force than the one applied to the smaller piston.
