A glass measuring cylinder measures and dispenses a known volume of liquid quickly: preparing dilute reagent solutions, measuring water for osmosis or soil investigations, dispensing solvent for a chromatography tank, or finding the volume of an irregular solid by displacement. Buyers looking for borosilicate laboratory glassware in India choose it because the glass resists common laboratory chemicals and copes with warm solutions.
Read the volume at eye level from the bottom of the meniscus, stand the cylinder on a level bench, and pick the smallest capacity that holds the whole volume, since a smaller cylinder has finer graduations. A measuring cylinder is not meant for heating over a flame; for exact volumes in titrations, use a pipette or burette instead.
ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the OEM manufacturer of this Glass Measuring Cylinder. The cylinders are made at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and are supplied factory-direct to schools, universities, testing laboratories, dealers and importers, so buyers deal with the maker rather than a reseller.
For institutional vendor registration, the company's GSTIN is 06AAECJ8618A1ZT and its Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) is 3358004HRD1JIVXKYX49. Replacement cylinders for breakages and repeat orders for a new academic session can be requested from the manufacturer directly — ask us. Read more on the ScienceLab company profile.

Polypropylene measuring cylinders do the same job as glass ones, measuring water, reagent solutions and samples, but they will not shatter if knocked off a bench. That makes them the practical choice for junior classes, crowded practical sessions, field trips and outdoor water-testing work. They are also a sensible part of any school lab equipment bulk supply where replacement costs matter.
Stand the cylinder on a flat surface and read the scale at eye level. Rinse it with water after use and avoid scouring the inside with abrasive pads, since scratches make the graduations harder to see. Polypropylene is not suited to direct heating, so let hot liquids cool before measuring them.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, is the OEM that makes the Measuring Cylinder, Polypropylene. Production takes place at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and cylinders are dispatched factory-direct to schools, colleges, government institutions, dealers and importers.

Gas Jar Cover (Product Code: SLE/MC/03) is a clear, circular glass plate used to close a gas jar while a gas is collected, held briefly or tested in school chemistry practicals. It is made of sheet glass ground on one side, giving a flat face that sits closely on the jar's rim to keep the gas inside. It is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Material | Sheet glass |
| Shape | Circular |
| Colour | Clear |

| Purpose | Cover for gas jars |
| Product code | SLE/MC/03 |
| Manufacturer | Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) — OEM |
| Country of origin | India (made in Ambala, Haryana) |
In gas preparation experiments, a jar filled with water is inverted in a trough and gas from a delivery tube displaces the water. When the jar is full of gas, the cover is slid under its mouth while still under water, and the covered jar is lifted out. The cover is then moved aside briefly to insert a glowing splint, a burning taper or limewater when testing for oxygen, hydrogen or carbon dioxide, making it a small but essential part of any gas collection apparatus.
Place the ground face against the jar's flange; a thin smear of petroleum jelly on the ground surface improves the seal when a gas must be held for longer. Slide the cover sideways rather than lifting it straight up, handle it by the edges, and store covers flat so the ground face is not chipped.
ScienceLab, the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, is the OEM behind this Gas Jar Cover. The company manufactures the covers at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplies them factory-direct, together with the gas jars and chemistry glassware they accompany, to schools, colleges, dealers and importers.
Because the maker quotes directly, matching covers to existing jars, adding spares or repeating an order next term is straightforward — ask us. Learn more on the company profile.

Gas jars collect the gases students prepare in chemistry, such as oxygen, hydrogen and carbon dioxide, either over water in a trough or by upward or downward displacement of air. Once filled and covered, the jar is used for identification tests and combustion demonstrations, for example burning sulphur or charcoal on a deflagrating spoon inside the jar. Two jars placed mouth to mouth also make a simple diffusion demonstration.
As borosilicate glassware from India, the jar tolerates the heat of combustion demonstrations, and its heavy foot keeps it steady on the bench. Put a layer of sand or water in the bottom before any combustion demonstration, never heat the jar directly over a flame, and let it cool before washing.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, known by its trading name ScienceLab, is the original equipment manufacturer of the Gas Jar, Glass. The jars are manufactured at the company's licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and dispatched factory-direct to schools, colleges, laboratories, dealers and importers.

Soda Glass Tubing 6mm (Product Code: SLE/MC/05) is clear soda glass tube used to make delivery tubes, bends, jets and connectors for gas and liquid apparatus in school chemistry labs. It comes in 500mm lengths and is listed as heat and chemical resistant for general laboratory use. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, a lab glassware supplier in India for schools and colleges.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Material | Soda glass |
| Colour | Clear |
| Size (as named) | 6mm |
| Length | 500mm |
| Properties | Heat resistant and chemical resistant |
| Product code | SLE/MC/05 |
| Supplied by | Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India |
Soda glass tubing is the raw material for the glass parts of many school experiments: right-angle bends and delivery tubes for gas preparation, short connectors pushed through a rubber stopper, fine jets for fountain and wash-bottle set-ups, and simple manometers. Soda glass softens at a lower temperature than borosilicate, so students can bend and draw it in an ordinary Bunsen or spirit-lamp flame, which is why it is the usual choice for glass-working practicals.
Cut the tube by scoring it once with a glass tubing cutter and snapping it away from you with the hands protected by a cloth. Fire-polish every cut end, let hot glass cool on a heat-proof mat, and wet the tube with water or glycerol before easing it into a rubber stopper, a common cause of hand injuries if forced. For apparatus that will be heated strongly, use borosilicate tubing instead.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab, supplies Soda Glass Tubing 6mm from Ambala, Haryana, as a consumable for chemistry practicals and apparatus building. The company sources the tubing for schools, colleges, laboratory technicians, dealers and importers, and can quote it with the stoppers, burners and other glassware it is used with. More information is on the company profile.
These tools and materials are used with Soda Glass Tubing 6mm when building apparatus:
See related items in the Measuring Cylinders category.
What length is the Soda Glass Tubing 6mm?
The Soda Glass Tubing 6mm is supplied in 500mm lengths. Students cut each length into shorter pieces for delivery tubes, bends and connectors, so one length usually provides glass for several pieces of apparatus.
Can Soda Glass Tubing 6mm be bent in a Bunsen flame?
Yes. Soda Glass Tubing 6mm softens at a lower temperature than borosilicate glass, so it can be bent and drawn into jets in an ordinary Bunsen burner flame. Rotate the tube evenly while heating and bend it slowly once it softens.
How do I confirm the exact diameter of the Soda Glass Tubing 6mm?
The Soda Glass Tubing 6mm is named for a 6mm size. Because tubing is specified by both outside diameter and bore, please confirm the dimensions you need through our contact page before ordering, so that it fits your stoppers and connectors.
Is Soda Glass Tubing 6mm suitable for strong heating?
Soda Glass Tubing 6mm is listed as heat and chemical resistant for general laboratory use, but soda glass expands more on heating than borosilicate. For apparatus that will be heated strongly or repeatedly, choose borosilicate glass tubing instead.
Who supplies the Soda Glass Tubing 6mm?
Soda Glass Tubing 6mm is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd, trading as ScienceLab, from Ambala, Haryana, India. The company supplies tubing and related glassware to schools, colleges, dealers and importers in India and international markets.
What should a quotation request for Soda Glass Tubing 6mm include?
A quotation request for Soda Glass Tubing 6mm should give the number of 500mm lengths, the diameter and bore you need, any cutters or stoppers to add, and the delivery destination. Glass tubing needs careful packing, so the destination helps us plan it.
