Tectonics Demonstrator Model
Product Code : JL-LEP-10311
The Tectonics Demonstrator Model from Jaincolab, a trusted school laboratory equipment manufacturer, is used to simulate tectonic processes, clearly demonstrating the powerful forces at work with this easy-to-use, hands-on model.
It simulates the formation of folds, faults, erosion, tectonics, compression and rift valleys using a rectangular sand-filled container and push-plate mechanism. As a leading school laboratory equipment manufacturer, Jaincolab supplies this model as per DEPED Guidelines to schools, colleges and laboratories across India and internationally.
