Spherometer Disc Type (Stainless Steel)
Product Code : JA-MI-2121
The Spherometer Disc Type (Stainless Steel), SKU JA-MI-2121, is the stainless steel version of the disc spherometer, used to find the radius of curvature of lenses and mirrors. Three legs fixed at the corners of an equilateral triangle carry the frame, a fine pitch screw through the centre forms the fourth leg, and the readings come from a 10-0-10 mm pitch scale and a circular scale of 100 divisions (50 in some versions). JaincoLab manufactures it for school and college physics laboratories.
Specifications
The pitch scale on a strip at right angles to the frame reads 10-0-10 mm, and the circular scale on the screw head has 100 equal divisions (50 in some versions).

Applications of the stainless steel spherometer
The height of the central screw above the plane of the legs, together with the leg spacing, gives the radius of curvature of a lens or mirror surface.
- Radius of curvature of convex lenses in class 11 and 12
- Curvature of spherical mirrors
- Thickness of thin plates and glass slips
- B.Sc physics practicals
