Product Code : SCL-PMP-11311
The Eight Piece Tuning Fork Set is an educational sound apparatus used to demonstrate vibration, pitch, frequency comparison and resonance. It provides eight fixed-frequency tuning forks for repeatable classroom and laboratory activities involving sound production, wave behaviour and introductory acoustics.
Product Description
Each tuning fork consists of two prongs joined to a supporting stem. When one prong is struck gently with a suitable soft striker, both prongs vibrate at the fork’s designated natural frequency and produce a characteristic tone. Students can compare the forks to relate vibration frequency to perceived pitch.
Lab Equipments Ambala publishes this product as the Tuning Fork Set of 8 under product code SCL-PMP-11141. The manually operated and reusable set is designed for secondary, senior-secondary and undergraduate demonstrations. The individual frequencies, fork material, calibration tolerance, dimensions and accessory contents must be confirmed before ordering.
Key Features
- Eight fixed-frequency forks: Provides multiple sound sources for comparative frequency and pitch demonstrations.
- Sound-vibration study: Shows that sound is produced by a mechanically vibrating body.
- Pitch comparison: Helps learners associate higher vibration frequency with higher perceived pitch.
- Resonance experiments: Suitable for use with compatible resonance tubes, boxes and sonometer arrangements.
- Manual operation: Requires no electrical supply for standard classroom experiments.
- Repeatable demonstrations: Supports regular physics practicals, science exhibitions and teacher-led activities.
- Broad academic use: Suitable for schools, colleges, universities, STEM laboratories and coaching institutes.

How to Use the Eight Piece Tuning Fork Set
- Place the tuning-fork set on a stable and clean laboratory surface.
- Select the fork with the required marked frequency.
- Hold the fork firmly by its stem without touching the prongs.
- Strike one prong gently using a suitable soft rubber striker.
- Hold the vibrating fork near the listening position or above compatible resonance apparatus.
- Compare its sound with another fork and note the pitch difference.
- Repeat the procedure for resonance or frequency-comparison activities.
- Return each fork to its assigned storage position after use.
Safety note: Strike the tuning forks gently with a suitable soft striker. Do not hit them against metal, glass or laboratory benches, and do not place vibrating prongs directly against the ear.
Care & Maintenance
- Wipe each tuning fork with a clean, dry cloth after handling.
- Protect the prongs from bending, corrosion and hard impacts.
- Do not file, grind, heat or modify a fork, as this changes its frequency.
- Store each fork separately in a fitted slot or protective wrapping.
