Glass Measuring Cylinder Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Glass Measuring Cylinder (Product Code: SLE/MC/01) is a graduated borosilicate glass cylinder used to measure liquid volumes in school, college and research laboratories. It comes in seven capacities from 10 ml to 1000 ml, and the liquid forms a true meniscus that makes the graduations easy to read, so it is a staple measuring cylinder for school labs across India. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

What Is a Glass Measuring Cylinder Used For?

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.

What to Specify When Ordering

• Capacity: 10, 25, 50, 100, 250, 500 or 1000 ml.
• Quantity of each capacity per lab or student group.
• Whether unbreakable polypropylene cylinders are also needed for junior classes.
• Delivery destination, so the glassware can be packed accordingly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What capacities does the Glass Measuring Cylinder come in?
The Glass Measuring Cylinder is available in 10 ml, 25 ml, 50 ml, 100 ml, 250 ml, 500 ml and 1000 ml capacities. Choose the smallest size that holds your full volume, since smaller cylinders have closer graduations and give more precise readings.

What glass is the Glass Measuring Cylinder made from?
The Glass Measuring Cylinder is made from borosilicate glass. It is heat resistant and chemical resistant, withstanding typical laboratory temperature variations and contact with the acids, alkalis and salt solutions commonly used in school and college practicals.

How do I read the Glass Measuring Cylinder correctly?
Place the Glass Measuring Cylinder on a level surface, bring your eye level with the liquid surface and read the graduation at the bottom of the meniscus. The liquid forms a true meniscus in this cylinder, so the curve is clear and consistent from one reading to the next.

Can the Glass Measuring Cylinder be heated?
The Glass Measuring Cylinder withstands typical laboratory temperature variations, but measuring cylinders should not be heated directly over a flame or hotplate. Heat liquids in a beaker or flask first and let them cool before measuring, because hot liquids also give misleading volume readings.

Who manufactures the Glass Measuring Cylinder?
The Glass Measuring Cylinder is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Institutions and dealers buy directly from the manufacturer, which also handles replacement and repeat orders.

Can the Glass Measuring Cylinder be ordered in mixed sizes for a new lab?
Yes. A quotation for the Glass Measuring Cylinder can combine several capacities in different quantities, which suits new school or college laboratory setups. List each size and quantity plus the delivery destination in India or abroad, and the manufacturer will quote accordingly.
