Physics Tuning Forks, Set of 8, with Mallet – Scientific Pitch, C4 = 256Hz – Includes Wooden Storage Case – Designed for Scientifc and Physics Experiments
- Set of 8 Tuning Forks, designed for Physics Experiments. Scientific Pitch (C4 = 256Hz)
- Set includes Mallet with soft and hard end
- Designed for Physics experiments and actual frequencies can be +/- 5% stated Hz
- Perfect tool for sound wave physics experiments
- Set comes in a wooden case, with foam liner fitted to secure forks and mallet in place.
Premium aluminum physics tuning fork set. This set includes mallet with both soft and hard ends for activating the sounds of each fork.
Key Specifications
- Frequencies: Common sets include 256 Hz (C), 288 Hz (D), 320 Hz (E), 341.3 Hz (F), 384 Hz (G), 426.6 Hz (A), 480 Hz (B), and 512 Hz (C).
- Material: Most modern sets use corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy for long resonance and lightweight handling, though traditional steel versions are also available.
- Packaging: Typically supplied in a wooden storage box or a molded case to protect the precision of the forks.
- Accessories: Most sets include a rubber-headed mallet (activator) and sometimes a cleaning cloth.
A tuning fork set of 8 from China typically refers to either a scientific set for physics experiments or a therapeutic set for sound healing and chakra balancing. These sets are widely available through major Chinese export platforms and specialized retailers.
Common Types of 8-Piece Sets
- Scientific/Educational Sets: These are primarily used in physics labs to demonstrate sound waves and resonance. They typically cover a full musical octave: C (256 Hz), D, E, F, G, A, B, and C (512 Hz).
- Healing & Chakra Sets: Designed for meditation and sound therapy. These often use different frequency scales, such as:
- Pythagorean Scale: A full octave (C to C) tuned for harmonic resonance.
- Specific Healing Frequencies: Some sets include irregular frequencies like 126.22 Hz, 136.1 Hz (OM), 172.06 Hz, and 210.42 Hz.
Materials & Construction
- Aluminum Alloy: Most common for healing sets because it is lightweight, rust-resistant, and produces longer-lasting vibrations with richer overtones.
- Steel: Often used for scientific precision because it maintains pitch accuracy well over time, though it has shorter sustain than aluminum.
What is Usually Included
Most 8-piece sets from China come as a complete kit, including:
- 8 Calibrated Tuning Forks
- A Rubber Mallet or Beater (often with a wooden handle)
- A cleaning cloth and sometimes a small wrench for adjustments
- A storage case, which may be a soft velvet pouch, a wooden box, or a padded aluminum carrying case
