Quick Answer: The Apparatus for the Study of Viscosity is a manual laboratory set for measuring and comparing how strongly different liquids resist flow. It is built from metal, glass and supporting parts for physics, chemistry and engineering practicals.
Last updated: October 2026
Key Features
Manual set-up with a tube or container for the liquid sample
Made of metal, glass and supporting components
Time, flow rate or movement recorded for each liquid
Used to compare the viscosity of different liquids
About This Product
Students fill the tube or container with a liquid, run the test and record the time, flow rate or movement, then repeat with other liquids to compare their viscosity. The practical introduces internal friction, resistance to flow and the effect of temperature on how easily a liquid flows. Enquiries from Mexico, Tunisia, Morocco, Sierra Leone, Estonia and Guinea for the Apparatus for the study of viscosity receive an export quotation.
