Equilateral Glass Prism – 50mm (60° Angles, Polished Faces)

This Equilateral Glass Prism is a high-quality teaching aid designed for demonstrating key principles of light and optics in school science lessons. Made from solid glass with polished faces, it provides clear and consistent results when used in ray tracing and refraction experiments.

With nominal angles of 60° × 60° × 60° and a size of 50mm, this prism offers a standard equilateral shape ideal for classroom use. The edges are slightly bevelled for safer handling, making it suitable for regular use by students.

Although not optically worked, this prism is perfectly suited for educational demonstrations and practical investigations into the behaviour of light.
