Axle and Lever Beam
Product Code : JL-LEP-10158
The Axle and Lever Beam (SKU JL-LEP-10158) is used to demonstrate the lever principle in simple machines activities. The beam turns about its axle, and students hang loads and apply effort at different distances from the pivot, so that the axle and lever beam shows how the position of a force changes its turning effect. JaincoLab manufactures it in India for school physics laboratories, made as per DepEd guidelines, as part of its simple machines apparatus.
Specifications
The axle and lever beam is a beam mounted on an axle that acts as the fulcrum, used to demonstrate the lever principle; it is made as per DepEd guidelines and listed under SKU JL-LEP-10158, and it is used with hooked masses and a Newton spring balance.

Applications of the axle and lever beam
The beam is used for lever activities in which load and effort are placed at measured distances from the axle, so that students can balance the beam and relate force to distance from the pivot. Typical uses are:
- Demonstrating the lever principle with loads on either side of the axle
- Balancing hooked masses at different distances from the pivot
- Measuring the effort with a Newton spring balance
- Introducing mechanical advantage in simple machines lessons
