Heat Conductometer
Product Code : EL-PLE-13192
Eduscope India is a leading Heat Conductometer
Quick Answer: Heat Conductometer uses a five-spoke, wax-melting demonstration to visually rank how aluminum, brass, steel, stainless steel and copper each conduct heat.
The Heat Conductometer is a comparative physics apparatus built to demonstrate how different metals conduct heat at different rates. It makes a valuable addition to any physics lab equipment India collection focused on heat transfer and thermodynamics teaching. Through a simple wax-melting demonstration, it lets students visually compare the conductivity of five common metals side by side.
How the Heat Conductometer Works
Five rods extend outward from a central brass hub like spokes on a wheel, with each rod made from a different metal — aluminum, brass, steel, stainless steel, and copper — and marked with its metal name at the hub for easy identification. A wax pellet sits in a notch cut into each rod. When heat is applied at the hub, it travels outward along every rod at a pace set by that metal's own thermal conductivity, and the order in which the wax pellets melt and drop away gives students a clear, visual ranking of how well each metal conducts heat.
Assembled and Ready for the Classroom
The Heat Conductometer arrives fully assembled, with all five rods already fitted to the brass hub, so it is ready to demonstrate as soon as it is unpacked. It also comes with a supply of wax, giving instructors what they need to run the demonstration repeatedly without sourcing consumables separately.

EduScope India's physics equipment, including this Heat Conductometer, is exported to Mainland Southeast Asian markets such as Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos and Thailand, supporting school and college lab equipping in the region.
This instrument is also among the physics lab equipment India EduScope India regularly supplies through bulk institutional and government lab-equipment orders, school chains and CSR-funded science-education programs.
