Spring Balance - Push Pull - 500g - 5 Newtons

This 500g (5 Newton) spring balance is designed for measuring both mass and force using a dual scale calibrated in grams and newtons. With a sturdy transparent body and push-pull functionality, this balance is ideal for investigating motion, weight, and energy in physical science lessons. Its easy-to-read markings make it accessible for middle and upper primary learners, while its versatility suits a broad range of experimental activities.

Educational Benefits:

• Provides visual and physical connection between mass and force
• Strengthens scientific literacy through practical metric measurement
• Encourages problem-solving and data interpretation in experiments
• Reinforces physics concepts through push and pull investigations
