The Ball and Ring allows for a visible demonstration of the principles of the expansion of metals. When the ball is heated it will not pass through the ring, but when cooled the ball passes through the ring freely. The Ball and Ring are mounted on insulated plastic handles to protect your hands from the heat. Instructions included.

The product works well but the ring at the base of the rod came loose. This is just cosmetic.

They look so beat up. Like someone has already been using them for years. And it didn't work. I heat up the ball for about 5 minutes and put the ring in ice cold water for 5 minutes and it passed through every time. The handles are made of wood, not plastic like the description says.

This item needs to publish spec to ensure that purchasers know that it contains lead, making classroom use problematic.

Nice replacement for a set I ruined by shocking them cold in water. They need to cool down slowly or they won't fit anymore. Cheaper than catalog companies
