Product Code : SCL-MF-12304
The K Constant Spring Apparatus is a physics laboratory apparatus used for determining the spring constant, verifying Hooke’s law, and studying the relationship between force and extension. It is suitable for school physics laboratories, STEM classrooms, teachers, and students who need a clear practical setup for elasticity experiments.
Product Description
The K Constant Spring Apparatus by School Equipments helps students measure how a spring extends when different loads are applied. The apparatus supports the standard school physics method of recording load, extension, and proportionality between applied force and displacement.
This apparatus is useful for lessons on elasticity, restoring force, Hooke’s law, spring constant, and force-extension graphs. It can be listed under physics laboratory equipment, mechanics teaching apparatus, general lab equipment, STEM lab kits, and the wider School Equipments product range.
Key Features
- Designed for determining the spring constant, commonly represented as k.
- Supports Hooke’s law experiments using load and extension readings.
- Suitable for school physics labs, mechanics practicals, and STEM demonstrations.
- Helps students prepare force-extension graphs from observed data.
- Useful for explaining elasticity, restoring force, proportional limit, and deformation.
- Simple classroom setup for teacher-led and supervised student experiments.
- Exact load capacity, material, dimensions, scale range, and included weights

What's Included in the Kit
- K Constant Spring Apparatus setup
- Spring or spring set
- Vertical scale or measuring arrangement
- Pointer or load hanger
- Slotted weights or mass set
- Instruction sheet or experiment guide
Applications / Uses
- Determining the spring constant of a given spring.
- Verifying Hooke’s law through load-extension measurements.
- Plotting force-extension graphs in school physics practicals.
- Teaching elasticity, restoring force, and proportional limit.
- Demonstrating the effect of increasing load on spring extension.
- Supporting STEM activities on forces, measurement, and graph interpretation.
How to Use the K Constant Spring Apparatus
- Place the apparatus on a stable laboratory bench.
- Fix or suspend the spring as per the apparatus design.
- Record the initial pointer or scale reading without load.
- Add a known load to the spring using the load hanger.
- Allow the spring to come to rest before taking the reading.
- Record the extension for each load and repeat with increasing masses.
- Plot force against extension and calculate the spring constant from the graph gradient.
Safety note: Do not overload the spring beyond its recommended capacity. Add and remove weights slowly to prevent sudden release or permanent deformation.
Care & Maintenance
- Store the spring without load after each experiment.
- Keep the scale, pointer, and support parts clean and dry.
- Avoid bending, overstretching, or dropping the spring.
- Check the support, hanger, and weights before classroom use.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a K Constant Spring Apparatus used for?
A K Constant Spring Apparatus is used to determine the spring constant and verify Hooke’s law by measuring spring extension under different loads.
What does k mean in a spring experiment?
In a spring experiment, k represents the spring constant. It shows the stiffness of the spring and is calculated from the relationship between force and extension.
Can this apparatus be used in school physics labs?
Yes, it is suitable for school physics practicals when used under teacher supervision and within the confirmed load capacity of the spring.
Does the apparatus include weights?
The supplied data does not confirm whether weights are included. Confirm the final kit contents before publishing or ordering.
What graph is plotted in a Hooke’s law experiment?
Students usually plot force on one axis and extension on the other axis. The gradient of the straight-line region is used to determine the spring constant.
How should the spring be stored?
The spring should be stored without load in a dry laboratory cabinet. Avoid overstretching, moisture, impact, and rough handling.
