Acrylic Equilateral Prism Block – 58mm

This high‑quality 58mm Acrylic Equilateral Block is a durable and optically clear prism designed for a wide range of light and optics investigations. Manufactured from robust, scratch‑resistant acrylic, it offers excellent clarity and reliability, making it perfect for classroom demonstrations and student practical work.

Its precise equilateral triangular geometry allows students to explore key optical effects such as refraction, dispersion, internal reflection, and image distortion. Lightweight, safe, and easy to handle, it is ideal for repeated use in busy school environments.


Key Features

  • High‑clarity acrylic construction for excellent optical performance
  • 58mm equilateral design ideal for refraction and reflection studies
  • Lightweight and classroom‑safe alternative to glass prisms
  • Durable and resistant to chips and cracks
  • Suitable for white‑light dispersion and colour separation experiments

Ideal for School Science Lessons

Perfect for KS3, GCSE, and A‑Level physics, this acrylic prism helps students investigate fundamental properties of light in a hands‑on, engaging way. Its clear optical surfaces make it ideal for use with ray boxes, LED sources, or natural light.

  • Explore refraction and measure angles of incidence and emergence
  • Demonstrate dispersion and colour separation
  • Investigate total internal reflection and critical angle concepts
  • Use with ray boxes to create clear, observable light paths
  • Safe and easy for students to handle during practical experiments

Reliable, clear, and classroom‑friendly, the 58mm Acrylic Equilateral Block is an essential tool for teaching the behaviour of light through practical investigation.
