EISCO wave form helix is used to study wave behavior. The helix is a metal slinky spring that stretches for demonstrating wave forms, and can be used on stairs with a tall step height for further experimentation. The helix measures 20.0cm (H) when compressed, and has a wooden stand for display and storage. (H is height, the vertical distance from the lowest to highest point.) The helix is suitable for high school or college students, or ages 14 to 21.
Helix will extend up to 65ft before distorting.

Science education products incorporate applied math and science principles into classroom and homeschool-based projects. Teachers in pre-K, elementary, and secondary classrooms use science education kits and products alongside science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) curriculum to demonstrate STEM concepts and real-world applications through hands-on activities. Science education projects include a broad range of activities, such as practical experiments in engineering, aeronautics, robotics, energy, chemistry, physics, biology, and geology. EISCO Scientific manufactures and supplies lab equipment for education and industry. The company, founded in 1968 and headquartered in Rochester, NY, meets International Organization of Standardization (ISO) standard 9001: 2000.
