Product Code : SCL-PLE-10402
The Air Cushion Glider from Lab Glassware Manufacturer, based in Ambala, Haryana, India, is a physics laboratory accessory used for studying near-frictionless linear motion on a compatible air track. Lab Glassware Manufacturer has manufactured and exported physics lab equipment since 1982 to schools, colleges and STEM labs across countries including Turkey, Israel, and Syria in the Near East region.
Quick answer: An air cushion glider rides on a thin cushion of air over a matched air track, virtually eliminating friction so students can study velocity, momentum, and collisions under near-ideal conditions.

Why Use an Air Track and Glider?
Air tracks reduce friction to near zero by floating a glider on a cushion of air, letting students observe motion, momentum conservation, and collisions (elastic and inelastic) much closer to ideal theoretical conditions than a standard wheeled cart on a roadway.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does an air cushion glider need to operate?
A: It requires a compatible air track connected to an air supply to create the low-friction air cushion.
Q: Is the air track included?
A: This listing is for the glider; confirm with our team whether a matching air track and blower are needed separately.
Q: What experiments is this used for?
A: Velocity, acceleration, momentum conservation, and elastic/inelastic collision experiments under near-frictionless conditions.
Q: Does Lab Glassware Manufacturer export this internationally?
A: Yes, we manufacture and export physics lab equipment from Ambala, Haryana, India to schools, colleges and distributors worldwide.
