Physical Balance Mass Set (Product Code: SLE/LB/09) is a cased set of standard masses used for weighing on a physical balance in school and college physics practicals. It combines chrome plated brass masses with light metal fractional weights and forceps, all kept in a case with lid so the complete set stays together. The set is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM physics instruments manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

During a weighing, the object goes on the left pan and masses are added to the right pan with the forceps, starting with the largest likely mass and working down. When the brass masses no longer fine-tune the balance, the light metal fractional weights make up the last small difference. Students then total the masses on the pan, record the result and return every piece to the case — a routine that also teaches careful laboratory habits.
Always lift masses with the forceps rather than fingers, because moisture and skin oils can add mass and dull the chrome plated finish over time. Keep the lid closed when the set is not in use, and wipe the masses with a soft dry cloth if they get dusty. As part of physics lab equipment in India for mass and density practicals, labs usually keep one set beside each physical balance.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited (ScienceLab) is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of the Physical Balance Mass Set. The chrome plated brass masses are made and cased with their forceps and fractional weights at the company’s own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Labs that need an extra set to match their balances can reorder from the maker directly, and dealers and importers are quoted factory-direct. See our company profile.

What does the Physical Balance Mass Set contain?
The Physical Balance Mass Set contains chrome plated brass masses, light metal fractional weights and forceps, all packed together in a case with lid so that the complete set stays together between practical classes.
Which denominations are in the Physical Balance Mass Set?
The individual denominations and total mass of the Physical Balance Mass Set are not listed in our current documentation. Please ask through the contact page for the full list before ordering, so it can be matched to your balance.
Why are forceps supplied with the Physical Balance Mass Set?
Forceps come with the Physical Balance Mass Set because handling masses by hand leaves sweat and grease on them, which slightly changes their mass and marks the chrome plated finish over time.
Which balances can the Physical Balance Mass Set be used with?
The Physical Balance Mass Set is intended for physical balances such as our Physical Balance, and it can also serve other two-pan beam balances used in school and college laboratories.
Who manufactures the Physical Balance Mass Set?
Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) manufactures the Physical Balance Mass Set (SLE/LB/09) as the OEM, at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, colleges and dealers in India and international markets buy it factory-direct.
Is a calibration certificate available for the Physical Balance Mass Set?
A calibration certificate is not listed for the Physical Balance Mass Set. Please discuss any calibration documentation needs with our team before ordering, and we will advise what is possible for these masses.
