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.

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.

What is the Gas Jar Cover made of?
The Gas Jar Cover is made of clear circular sheet glass that is ground on one side. The ground face gives a closer contact with the jar's rim, while the clear glass lets students see the contents and any colour change inside the jar.
What size is the Gas Jar Cover?
The listing does not state a diameter for the Gas Jar Cover. Tell us which gas jar you use, or order it together with the ScienceLab Gas Jar, Glass, and we will confirm a cover that fits the jar's flange before quoting.
Which side of the Gas Jar Cover goes on the jar?
Place the ground side of the Gas Jar Cover against the flange of the gas jar. The ground surface seats more closely than smooth glass, and a light smear of petroleum jelly on it helps hold the gas when the jar must stand for a while.
Who manufactures the Gas Jar Cover?
The Gas Jar Cover is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Orders and quotations are handled by the manufacturer directly, without a trading middleman.
How should Gas Jar Covers be cleaned and stored?
Wash Gas Jar Covers in warm soapy water to remove grease and chemical residue, then rinse and dry them. Store them flat and separated so the ground faces do not scratch or chip against each other between practical sessions.
Can Gas Jar Covers be ordered with gas jars in bulk?
Yes, Gas Jar Covers can be quoted with gas jars and other gas-preparation apparatus in quantities for whole classes, institutions, dealers and importers in India and international markets. Send your list and delivery location through the contact page or the enquiry cart.
