Product Description

This is the original Slinky Spring from the USA for endless walking, juggling, flipping and action motion fun. 

Invented 68 years ago by Richard James, a US naval engineer, the slinky idea came about when a tension spring fell off his desk and started “walking”. He then created a special coil spring and ended up selling 250 million in 50 years!  It was even used as a mobile radio antennae during the Vietnam War. 

Great for modeling transversal and longitudinal (sound) waves.   

Size: 60 mm diam. in a box
Teach: modeling sound transmission, wave modeling; energy transmissions 
Age: 5+
