Semi Circular Glass Slab Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-MF-12345
The Semi Circular Glass Slab is a transparent optical glass accessory used for demonstrating refraction, angle of incidence, angle of emergence, and total internal reflection in ray optics experiments. It is designed for school physics labs, college practical rooms, STEM classrooms, and teacher-led light experiments.
Product Description
The Semi Circular Glass Slab by School Equipments is used with a ray box, laser source, white paper, and protractor to trace the path of light through a curved glass medium. Its semicircular shape allows light rays to enter through the curved surface with reduced deviation when aligned correctly.
This apparatus helps students observe how light bends at a glass-air boundary and how the critical angle can be studied under controlled classroom conditions. The product is suitable for refraction, Snell’s law, and total internal reflection demonstrations. Exact size, thickness, glass grade, and edge finish should be confirmed before final publication.
Key Features
- Designed for ray optics experiments in physics laboratories.
- Semi-circular shape supports clear demonstration of refraction through glass.
- Useful for studying angle of incidence, angle of refraction, and critical angle.
- Compatible with a ray box, laser source, protractor, and optical bench setup.
- Suitable for school, college, STEM, and teacher-training laboratories.
- Helps students trace real light paths instead of relying only on diagrams.
- Glass type, size, and thickness should be confirmed from the supplied model.

How to Use the Semi Circular Glass Slab
- Place a white sheet of paper on a flat laboratory table.
- Position the semi circular glass slab on the paper and trace its outline.
- Direct a narrow ray of light from a ray box or low-power laser toward the slab.
- Mark the incident ray, refracted ray, and emergent ray positions.
- Use a protractor to measure the angle of incidence and angle of refraction.
- Repeat the experiment with different incident angles to observe refraction changes.
- Increase the angle gradually to study the critical angle and total internal reflection.
Safety note: handle glass carefully, avoid chipped edges, and never point a laser beam directly into the eyes.
Care & Maintenance
- Clean the glass slab with a soft lint-free cloth before and after use.
- Store it in protective packing to prevent scratches and breakage.
- Do not drop the slab or place heavy objects on it.
- Check for cracks or chipped edges before classroom use.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Semi Circular Glass Slab used for?
A Semi Circular Glass Slab is used to demonstrate refraction, Snell’s law, critical angle, and total internal reflection in physics optics experiments.
Why is the glass slab semi-circular?
The semicircular shape helps students direct light through the curved surface toward the centre, making refraction at the flat glass-air surface easier to observe and measure.
Can students use it with a ray box?
Yes. It can be used with a ray box, slit plate, low-power laser source, protractor, and white paper for classroom ray tracing experiments.
Is this product suitable for school physics laboratories?
Yes. It is suitable for school physics labs, college practicals, STEM classrooms, and teacher-led demonstrations under supervision.
What material is the Semi Circular Glass Slab made from?
It is a glass optical accessory. The exact glass grade, size, thickness, and edge finish should be confirmed from the supplied model.
Can it be used to demonstrate total internal reflection?
Yes. When used correctly with a ray source and protractor, the slab can help demonstrate critical angle and total internal reflection at the glass-air boundary.
