Frequently asked questions
Is the ADC Tuning Fork suitable for bone conduction tests?
<p>Yes, the ADC Tuning Fork is designed with an <strong>extra-long, smooth aluminum handle</strong> specifically for bone conduction tests. The handle is 2 inches long, facilitating ease of use.</p>
What accurate frequencies are available?
<p>The ADC Tuning Fork is a precision instrument available in six distinct and highly accurate frequencies, ensuring suitability for comprehensive auditory and neurological testing.</p>
<p>These forks are constructed from durable, corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy and are significantly lighter (weighing one-third less) than comparable steel models.</p>
<p>The precise frequencies offered are:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>128 Hz</strong></li>
<li><strong>256 Hz</strong></li>
<li><strong>512 Hz</strong></li>
<li><strong>1024 Hz</strong></li>
<li><strong>2048 Hz</strong></li>
<li><strong>4096 Hz</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>Each tuning fork also features an extra-long, 2-inch turned smooth aluminum handle, optimized specifically for reliable bone conduction tests.</p>
