Applications

KS3 & KS4 students

The TBB triple beam balance is cheap, simple and easy to use. This balance is designed for students aged 11-15 and can be used for teaching mass measurement and density weighing experiments.

Field experiments

TBB triple beam balances do not require batteries to operate and are therefore often used by students, professionals and hobbyists for conducting weighing experiments when outdoors. The TBB can be neatly placed and transported in a designated Adam TBB carry case for moving from one location to another.
