Measuring Cylinder 250 ml (Product Code: SCI-455/051) is a graduated borosilicate glass cylinder used to measure larger liquid volumes for class demonstrations, heat experiments and preparation work in school and college laboratories. It is marked in 5 ml divisions, a scale that balances its 250 ml capacity with quick, easy reading for teachers and lab assistants. It is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India, alongside its chemistry lab glassware for India and export.

Fair-test heat experiments depend on it: students measure the same volume of water for every trial when comparing how far different fuels or burners raise its temperature. Teachers also use it to make up one batch of dilute solution for several student groups, and in biology to give every plant pot or germination tray an identical amount of water.
A useful rule is to pick the smallest cylinder that holds the volume you need; for just a few millilitres, a smaller cylinder reads more closely than this 5 ml scale. Pour down the inside wall to limit froth and bubbles, and clean the cylinder with a soft nylon brush so residues do not build up on the glass.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which does business as ScienceLab, is the OEM for this cylinder and produces it at its own licensed factory at 449, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Buying factory-direct means the quotation and later repeat orders are handled by the manufacturer rather than a trading intermediary; ask us whenever you need matching replacements.

What graduations does the Measuring Cylinder 250 ml have?
The Measuring Cylinder 250 ml is graduated in 5 ml divisions up to 250 ml. That scale suits measuring larger volumes quickly for demonstrations and preparation work; for just a few millilitres, a smaller cylinder with finer divisions gives a closer reading.
When should a lab choose the Measuring Cylinder 250 ml over a smaller one?
Choose the Measuring Cylinder 250 ml when a single measurement is more than a smaller cylinder can hold, such as water for heat experiments or a batch of solution for several groups. Measuring in one pour avoids adding up the errors of repeated refills.
How should the Measuring Cylinder 250 ml be cleaned?
Rinse the Measuring Cylinder 250 ml soon after use, scrub the inside with a soft nylon brush and a little detergent, then rinse with tap water and distilled water. Let it drain upside down, and avoid abrasive powders that can wear the graduation markings.
Who manufactures the Measuring Cylinder 250 ml?
The Measuring Cylinder 250 ml is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Quotations and follow-up orders are handled by the manufacturer itself, not by a reseller.
Is a calibration certificate available for the Measuring Cylinder 250 ml?
The current listing for the Measuring Cylinder 250 ml does not describe calibration documentation. If your institution or tender requires a calibration certificate, raise it through our contact page before ordering so we can discuss what is possible.
Can replacement cylinders be ordered after breakages?
Yes. Replacement cylinders can be requested from the manufacturer whenever breakages occur. Quote the product code SCI-455/051 in your enquiry so the replacement matches the Measuring Cylinder 250 ml units already in your laboratory, and include the quantity needed.
Share the quantity of Measuring Cylinder 250 ml you need through our contact page or add it to the enquiry cart. The manufacturer quotes directly, so there is no middleman between your lab and the factory.
