BIMETALLIC STRIP
A simple thermal device made from two bonded metals that respond differently to temperature changes. Useful for demonstrating bending caused by unequal thermal expansion.

Description
The Bimetallic Strip provides a clear demonstration of how different metals expand at different rates when heated. As temperature changes, the bonded strip bends because the two metals undergo unequal expansion or contraction. This makes it a useful teaching aid for explaining thermal expansion, temperature effects, and the working principle behind thermostats and thermal switches.
