Wood and Metal Cylinder
Product Code : JA-H-8021
The JaincoLab wood and metal cylinder (SKU JA-H-8021) is a simple demonstration of the difference between a good and a poor conductor of heat. It is a cylindrical rod 200 mm long and 30 mm in diameter, made of two halves: one end metal, the other wood. In the classic test, a strip of paper is wrapped tightly across the joint and held over a flame; the paper over the wood scorches first, while the metal conducts heat away. It suits school heat lessons.
Specifications
The cylinder measures 200 mm in length and 30 mm in diameter and is composed of two halves, one metal and one wood. The type of metal is not stated in the product data and is confirmed on the quotation.
