Measuring Cylinder
Measuring Cylinder (Product Code: SCL1699/030) is a 25 ml graduated cylinder in clear borosilicate glass, used to measure small volumes of reagents, stains and water more accurately than a beaker allows in biology and chemistry practicals. Its heat- and chemical-resistant glass and small capacity make it a routine choice when schools order a measuring cylinder for school labs in India. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

What Is the 25 ml Measuring Cylinder Used For?
The 25 ml size suits small measured volumes: reagents for food tests, water for seed-soaking experiments, sugar or salt solutions for osmosis work and dilutions of stains. Stand the cylinder on a level bench, bring your eye level with the liquid and read the bottom of the meniscus against the graduation. For volumes of only a few millilitres a pipette gives better precision.
Although the glass is heat resistant, a measuring cylinder should not be heated over a flame, because heating can affect the accuracy of its volume markings; warm washing water is fine. Chemical resistance means that acids, alkalis and stains will not etch the glass, so the scale stays readable through years of shared use between biology and chemistry rooms.
OEM Manufacturer
This measuring cylinder is produced by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, which is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) and makes its glassware at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, colleges, dealers and importers are supplied factory-direct rather than through a trader, and orders for matching glassware or replacements go straight to the manufacturer. The company profile gives more background.

Items used with the measuring cylinder when preparing solutions:
- Beaker — receives the measured liquid for mixing or warming.
- Pipette — for volumes too small to read accurately on the cylinder.
- Distilled Water — for making up and diluting solutions.
- Wash Bottle LDPE with Narrow Mouth — tops up to the mark drop by drop.
- Measuring Cylinder, Polypropylene — a plastic alternative where breakage is a concern.

Frequently Asked Questions
What capacity is the Measuring Cylinder?
The Measuring Cylinder holds up to 25 ml and is graduated along its length, which makes it suited to the small reagent and stain volumes used in school practicals rather than to bulk solution preparation.
How do you read the Measuring Cylinder accurately?
Place the Measuring Cylinder on a level surface, bring your eye level with the liquid and read the bottom of the curved meniscus against the nearest graduation. Reading from above or below the line gives a parallax error.
Can the Measuring Cylinder be heated?
Avoid heating the Measuring Cylinder directly. Its borosilicate glass is heat resistant, but measuring vessels are not meant for heating because it can affect their markings; warm liquids in a beaker or flask and measure them once cooled.
Why choose the glass Measuring Cylinder over a plastic one?
The glass Measuring Cylinder is chemical resistant, easy to see through and does not stain, which suits reagent and dye work. A polypropylene cylinder is the better choice where breakage is the bigger concern, such as with younger classes.
Who manufactures the Measuring Cylinder?
The Measuring Cylinder (SCL1699/030) is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and is sold factory-direct to institutions, dealers and importers.
Is a calibration certificate available for the Measuring Cylinder?
Calibration certificate availability for the Measuring Cylinder should be discussed with ScienceLab before ordering. Send your requirement through the contact page so that what can be provided is confirmed in the quotation.
Can other capacities of the Measuring Cylinder be ordered?
This page covers the 25 ml Measuring Cylinder. For other capacities, or for class quantities, send ScienceLab the sizes, numbers and delivery location, and the options available will be confirmed in the quotation.
