Nylon Friction Rod
Product Code : JA-EE-7673
The Nylon Friction Rod (product code JA-EE-7673) is a nylon rod 300 mm long and 13 mm in diameter for electrostatics experiments. Nylon is an insulating plastic that holds charge after rubbing, and the nylon friction rod adds another material to a class set of rods, so students can compare how nylon, glass, ebonite and Perspex charge against the same cloth and start to build their own charging series.
Specifications
The rod is nylon, 300 mm long and 13 mm in diameter, close in size to the 300 x 12 mm rods in the range.
