Meter Scale (Product Code: SCL308/054) is a wooden measuring scale used to measure lengths and demonstrate measurement in classrooms and school laboratories. Its clear lacquer finish and durable design make it both a teaching tool at the board and an effective hand tool on the lab bench, one of the simplest biology teaching aids for Indian schools. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Biology classes use a meter scale to record the height of seedlings through a growth experiment, to lay out and check the sides of a quadrat or a line transect on the school field, and to measure leaf length, stem length or student height and arm span in studies of variation. Teachers also use it at the board to draw straight lines and demonstrate measurement, which is why it appears on almost every school laboratory setup list. In college practicals it lets students read longer lengths quickly.
To avoid parallax error, look straight down at the mark rather than from an angle, and place the scale on its edge so the graduations touch the object being measured. If the end of the scale has become worn, start the measurement from a clear graduation instead of the very end and subtract. Store the scale flat or hanging, away from damp and direct heat, so the wood does not warp; the lacquer surface can simply be wiped with a dry cloth.
