Tuning Fork Set of 8
Product Code : SCL-PLE-11675
The StemAids Tuning Fork Set of 8 is a precision-calibrated acoustic ensemble engineered for the empirical study of sound waves, harmonic frequencies, and resonance. Optimized for Secondary and University-level physics, this set facilitates the quantification of pitch and the visualization of vibrational nodes. Manufactured to ISO 9001:2015 standards, it provides a standardized platform for verifying the relationship between frequency (f) and wavelength (λ) within institutional laboratory environments.

Key Pedagogical Outcomes (Bloom’s Taxonomy Alignment)
- stamped frequency markings: facilitates student visualization of the inverse relationship between prong length and pitch, supporting Waves & Sound Module 101.
- sustained harmonic oscillation: enables the physical study of sound propagation in air, allowing learners to apply the formula v=fλ to determine the speed of sound.
- resonance cavity interface: supports the analysis of sympathetic vibration when used with resonance tubes or sounding boxes.
- vibrational energy evaluation: allows students to evaluate the conversion of mechanical energy into longitudinal pressure waves through tactile and auditory observation.
International Logistics & Compliance
StemAids ensures comprehensive OEM readiness for global institutional procurement:
- packaging: export-grade seaworthy crating (ISPM-15 compliant) featuring precision-cut internal stabilization to prevent prong misalignment or surface scratching.
- documentation: includes Manufacturer’s Authorization Form (MAF), Certificate of Conformance (CoC), and frequency calibration charts.
- durability: tropicalized design featuring corrosion-resistant alloys tested for frequency stability across various thermal environments.
Direct OEM Sourcing Advantages
Procuring the StemAids Tuning Fork Set directly ensures vertical manufacturing control:
- in-house precision milling: prongs are batch-tested using digital frequency counters to ensure perfect pitch accuracy.
- batch-tested for uniform reliability: every fork undergoes a "ring-time" test to ensure maximum duration of the audible tone.
- direct factory spares availability: guaranteed availability of individual replacement forks for specific frequencies to maintain a complete set.
- manufacturing control: direct oversight of metallurgical tempering ensures the forks maintain their calibrated frequency over years of repetitive laboratory use.
