Blow Pipe
Blow Pipe (Product Code: SLE/BL/13) is a nickel-plated brass laboratory blowpipe with a curved end, used to direct a fine, hot flame onto a sample on a charcoal block during dry tests in chemistry laboratories. School and college students use it for the charcoal block reduction tests of qualitative salt analysis and simple mineral identification. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

What Is the Blow Pipe Used For?
It is used for the charcoal block test. A little of the powdered salt, usually mixed with sodium carbonate, is placed in a small cavity cut in the block. The tip of the blowpipe is held at the edge of a luminous burner flame and the user blows gently and continuously, bending the flame onto the sample. Holding the tip just outside the flame gives a reducing flame, while pushing it slightly into the flame gives an oxidising flame; students then note any coating on the charcoal and whether a metallic bead forms.
Continuous blowing takes practice: breathe through the nose and use the cheeks as a reservoir so the flame stays steady. The curved end lets the flame be aimed downwards onto the block while the user keeps a comfortable distance, which is why the blowpipe remains standard chemistry lab equipment for school salt analysis. For hygiene, give each student their own blowpipe or wipe the mouthpiece with alcohol between users, and let the metal tip cool before putting it away.
OEM Manufacturer
ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of this blow pipe. It is made at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, rather than bought in from a trader, and goes factory-direct to schools, colleges, institutions, dealers and importers.
Because the maker handles every order itself, a repeat class set or a replacement for a lost or damaged pipe is simply a matter of asking us. Read more about the company on our company profile.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Blow Pipe made of?
The Blow Pipe (SLE/BL/13) is made of brass with a nickel-plated finish and has a curved end. The curve lets the user aim a fine flame down onto a sample resting on a charcoal block while keeping a comfortable working distance.
Is a charcoal block included with the Blow Pipe?
No charcoal block is listed as part of the Blow Pipe; our product details describe it as used with a charcoal block. Add the Charcoal Block to your enquiry separately, unless your quotation from ScienceLab states that blocks are included.
What length is the Blow Pipe?
The length of the Blow Pipe is not given in our current product details. If your practical manual or tender specifies a length, send it through our contact page and ScienceLab, as the manufacturer, will confirm what it can supply before quoting.
How is the Blow Pipe cleaned between students?
Clean the Blow Pipe by wiping the mouthpiece with alcohol between users, clearing any soot from the tip once the metal has cooled, and storing it dry. For hygiene, many schools issue one blow pipe to each student during salt analysis practicals.
Who manufactures the Blow Pipe?
The Blow Pipe is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, colleges, dealers and importers buy it factory-direct, and repeat or replacement orders are handled by the manufacturer itself.
Can schools order the Blow Pipe as a class set?
Yes. Schools and colleges can order the Blow Pipe in class-set quantities, and ScienceLab supplies institutions and distributors in India and international markets. State the number of pipes and whether charcoal blocks and burners are needed so one quotation covers the whole dry-test station.
