Mirror Support Block
Category : physics
Product Detail
The Mirror Support Block is a simple yet essential utility component used to provide stable, vertical mounting for unmounted plane mirrors during optical ray-tracing experiments and demonstrations.
Primary Function: To securely hold a rectangular mirror in a perfectly vertical orientation, ensuring accurate measurement of angles of incidence and reflection on a flat benchtop.
Construction: Typically manufactured from a single block of polished hardwood or high-density plastic to ensure durability and resistance to warping.
Design: Features a precision-cut longitudinal groove (slot) at the center of the top surface. The slot width is specifically sized (usually 2mm to 3mm) to accommodate standard laboratory mirror thicknesses.
