The 512 Hz frequency is widely used in clinical practice for both auditory screening and sensory assessment. This model does not include weights, providing a clean, unmodified vibration for standard assessment protocols.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e512 Hz frequency — widely used clinical standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStudent grade construction — durable and cost-effective for educational and clinical use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWithout weights — unmodified vibration for standard assessment protocols\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact and easy to handle for one-handed use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: 10057C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Baseline\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency: 512 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrade: Student\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeights: None (without weights)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of Origin: China\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIdeal For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNursing, medical, and allied health students who need a reliable, affordable tuning fork for clinical skills training and coursework will find the student grade 512 Hz fork a cost-effective option for learning and practicing standard assessment techniques. Physical therapists, occupational therapists, and clinicians who use tuning forks for sensory assessment will find the 512 Hz frequency a standard choice for upper and lower extremity screening. Clinics and educational programs stocking tuning forks for student or staff use will find the student grade construction a practical option for high-volume or shared use. DME providers and medical supply retailers that stock clinical instruments will find the 10057C a consistently available Baseline 512 Hz student grade tuning fork.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is 512 Hz a commonly used frequency for clinical tuning forks?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 512 Hz frequency falls within the range relevant to both auditory screening and sensory assessment. It is high enough to minimize tactile vibration felt through the handle while still being audible for standard hearing screening tests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the difference between a tuning fork with weights and one without?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWeights attached to the tines lower the vibration frequency and increase the duration of vibration after striking. A fork without weights vibrates at its pure, unmodified frequency (512 Hz in this case) and is the standard configuration for most clinical assessments. Weighted forks are used for specific applications where a lower effective frequency or longer vibration duration is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I care for a tuning fork?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStore the tuning fork in a protective case or pouch to prevent damage to the tines. Avoid dropping the fork or striking it against hard surfaces, as this can alter the vibration frequency or damage the tines. Clean with a mild disinfectant wipe as needed. Do not autoclave or expose to high heat, as this can affect the metal and alter frequency accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this fork suitable for both auditory and sensory assessment?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The 512 Hz frequency is used for both auditory screening and sensory assessment in clinical and educational settings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Baseline","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40388469227574,"sku":"10057C","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1443\/4772\/products\/10056a_c8e134c1-1baf-4b8d-a544-598066238bd9.jpg?v=1776389923","url":"https:\/\/www.precisionlabworks.com\/products\/baseline-student-grade-tuning-fork-512-hz-without-weights","provider":"Precision Lab Works","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
