Food Colouring Blue (Product Code: SLE/CH/201) is a blue colouring liquid used in science lessons to make the movement of water and other clear liquids visible. Despite its name it is not for food use and is intended for educational purposes only. Teachers use it for convection, capillary and mixing demonstrations, and it is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, a chemistry consumables supplier in India.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Colour | Blue |
| Capacity | 500ml |
| Intended use | Educational purposes only |
| Food use | Not for food use |
A single drop of blue colouring placed at the bottom corner of a beaker of water, gently heated from below, traces a clear loop as warm water rises and cooler water sinks, which makes convection easy for a whole class to see. The same tinted water drawn up narrow glass tubes of different bores shows capillary rise, and a strip of paper towel dipped into blue water shows liquid creeping upwards through fibres. Blue is also a strong contrast colour against white paper and clear glassware, so readings of liquid levels in tubes and cylinders are easier to take.
Use it diluted: a few drops colour a full beaker, so a 500ml pack lasts across many practical sessions. Keep the bottle clearly labelled as not for food use, store it away from the kitchen or canteen, and wear an apron, since concentrated colouring can stain skin, benches and clothing. Paired with physics lab equipment in India such as convection apparatus, it turns an abstract idea into a visible flow pattern.
This product is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which operates under the ScienceLab name in Ambala, Haryana, and provides demonstration consumables together with its own teaching apparatus. Learn more on our company profile.

Food Colouring Red (Product Code: SLE/CH/202) is a red colouring liquid for classroom experiments where students need to watch a liquid spread, rise or separate into layers. It is not for food use and is sold for educational purposes only. Biology and general science teachers rely on it for diffusion and plant transport practicals, and it is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, alongside school biology lab equipment in India.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Colour | Red |
| Capacity | 500ml |
| Food use | Not for food use |
| Intended use | Educational purposes only |
For a diffusion comparison, students add one drop of red colouring to a beaker of cold water and one to a beaker of warm water, then time how long each takes to spread evenly; the faster spread in warm water links particle movement to temperature. In plant biology lessons, a leafy stem or white flower stood in red-tinted water shows the route water takes up the stem, and a thin cross-section cut after a few hours reveals coloured vascular tissue. Red also helps in density work, where one of several salt or sugar solutions is tinted so that the layers stand out in a measuring cylinder.
Stir with a glass rod rather than shaking, so the colour mixes without trapping bubbles. Label every working solution clearly and keep the stock bottle away from food areas. A department buying from a lab consumables supplier in India can share one 500ml pack between several classes, because only small amounts are needed for each experiment.
Food Colouring Red is a supplied consumable from Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the Ambala, Haryana company behind the ScienceLab brand, which offers such teaching materials with its laboratory apparatus range. Our company profile has further details.
These items support the diffusion, plant transport and density experiments described above:

Is this product safe to use in food?
No. Although called food colouring, it is labelled not for food use and should only be used for educational purposes.
What volume does the pack hold?
Each pack holds 500ml.
Which experiments suit red rather than blue?
Red shows up well in plant stems and against green leaves, so many teachers choose it for water transport work, while either colour works for diffusion and density demonstrations.
How should the colouring be stored?
Keep the bottle closed, upright and labelled, in a cool cupboard away from direct sunlight and away from any food preparation area.
Can you share composition or safety information?
Please ask through our contact page; we will send the information available for this item.
What should I include when requesting a quotation?
Mention the product code SLE/CH/202, the number of packs, your institution name and the delivery location in India or abroad.

Friction Rod, Glass/Brass, 300mm (Product Code: SLE/PHY/106) is an electrostatics rod used to produce and study static electricity by rubbing in school physics experiments. Teachers and students use it to charge objects, attract light scraps of paper and compare like and unlike charges, and it measures 300 x 12 mm. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India, for schools buying physics lab instruments in India.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Material | Glass/Brass (as listed) |
| Dimensions | 300 x 12 mm |
| Application | Various experiments involving static electricity |
| Product code | SLE/PHY/106 |
| Manufacturer | Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) — OEM |
| Country of origin | India (made in Ambala, Haryana) |
Rubbing a glass rod with silk leaves it positively charged, which students can show by bringing it near scraps of paper, a thin stream of tap water or the cap of an electroscope. Hanging one charged rod in a paper stirrup and approaching it with another reveals repulsion between like charges, and attraction when the second rod is ebonite or polythene.
Where brass is used, the lesson turns to conductors: a metal rod held directly in the hand will not keep its charge, because the charge leaks away through the body, which is how conductors and insulators are contrasted in class. Static experiments work best on dry days, so wipe the rod clean, warm it slightly if the room is humid and store it in a dry cupboard. The rod fits naturally into physics practical equipment for CBSE-style electrostatics lessons.
ScienceLab — the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited — makes this friction rod at its licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Buying from the original equipment manufacturer means the rod comes factory-direct rather than through a trader, and matching rods for a complete electrostatics set can be ordered from the same maker. Ask us about replacements, and read our company profile for more about the business.

Explore the wider Physics Lab Equipment category for more electrostatics apparatus.
What size is the Friction Rod, Glass/Brass, 300mm?
The Friction Rod, Glass/Brass, 300mm measures 300 x 12 mm. That length gives students room to hold one end while rubbing the other, and to bring the charged end near paper scraps or an electroscope without touching them.
Is it a glass rod, a brass rod or both?
The listing gives the material of the Friction Rod, Glass/Brass, 300mm as glass/brass. Please state whether you need glass, brass or both when you enquire, and we will confirm exactly what the quotation covers.
What cloth should be used to charge the rod?
Silk is the traditional choice for charging a glass rod such as the Friction Rod, Glass/Brass, 300mm. Other clean, dry fabrics can be compared too, and testing two or three cloths makes a useful student investigation into how well each one charges the rod.
Why do static experiments sometimes fail?
Moisture is the usual reason. On humid days a thin film of water lets charge leak away from the Friction Rod, Glass/Brass, 300mm, so wipe it dry, warm it gently and repeat the rubbing. Grease from fingers can also reduce the effect.
Who manufactures this friction rod?
The Friction Rod, Glass/Brass, 300mm is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) as the OEM at its own factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, dealers and importers can order it direct from the manufacturer.
Can I order class sets or export quantities?
Yes. The Friction Rod, Glass/Brass, 300mm can be quoted in class-set or dealer quantities for India and international markets. Give the quantity, the material required and the destination through our contact page to receive a quotation.

Funnel Stand, Double (Product Code: SLE/GF/18) is a bench stand of the double type, used to hold funnels over receiving vessels so that two filtrations or transfers can run side by side. It pairs a polished wood base fitted with clamping screws with rods of approx. 460 mm length and 16 mm diameter. Chemistry teachers running group practicals, and technicians who need a stable filtration station, will find it a practical part of any school laboratory setup in India. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Type | Double |
| Base | Polished wood base with clamping screws |
| Rods | Approx. 460 mm x 16 mm dia. |
| Purpose | Supporting funnels during filtration and liquid transfer |
Place the stand on a level bench, set a beaker or flask beneath each position, and seat the funnels so their stems rest just inside the receivers and touch the inner wall. With two positions available, a pair of students can filter their own samples at the same time, or one student can compare two filter papers, two precipitates or a sample against a blank without juggling clamps. Typical class work includes separating sand or chalk from water, collecting precipitates in qualitative analysis and filtering solutions before crystallisation.
Tighten the clamping screws before loading so the set-up stays firm while liquid is poured. The wooden base should be wiped dry after spills rather than soaked, and acids or solvents should not be left standing on it. When planning chemistry lab equipment for a school in India, a double stand saves bench space compared with two separate retort stands.
ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, a private limited company (CIN U29309HR2020PTC087597) based in Ambala, Haryana. Its apparatus is produced at the company’s licensed factory at 449, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala (Factory Licence AMB-ONLINE-CHD-J-414), for customers in India and international markets.

Funnel, HDPE (Product Code: SLE/GF/19) is a white, chemical-resistant high-density polyethylene funnel with handles, designed for multipurpose liquid transfer and especially for filling carboys, drums and barrels. Where a small bench funnel would overflow or tip, this funnel gives chemical stores, water-testing rooms and teaching labs a steadier way to decant bulk liquids. It is part of the chemistry lab equipment in India produced by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Material | HDPE (high-density polyethylene) |
| Colour | White |
| Resistance | Chemical resistant |
| Handling | Handles for ease of use |
| Suitable for | Multipurpose use; convenient filling of carboys, drums and barrels |
The funnel comes into its own at the point where bulk stock is split or topped up: filling a distilled-water carboy, refilling a waste-solvent drum, transferring dilute acid into a storage container, or charging a barrel of cleaning solution. Hold it by the handles, rest the outlet firmly in the container neck and pour slowly so air can escape and the liquid does not surge back. Keeping one funnel for water and a separate, labelled one for each chemical stream avoids cross-contamination between stores.
HDPE resists many common laboratory chemicals, but compatibility always depends on the substance, concentration and temperature, so check your chemical against a resistance chart before first use. Rinse the funnel after each transfer, let it drain upside down and store it away from direct sunlight. Institutions ordering from a school laboratory equipment supplier in India usually add it to their stores list alongside carboys and aspirator bottles.
ScienceLab products such as this funnel come from Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, a laboratory equipment company operating out of Ambala in Haryana, India. It serves schools, colleges, testing labs and distributors in India and international markets. Visit the ScienceLab company profile to learn more.

Gas Jar Cover (Product Code: SLE/MC/03) is a clear, circular glass plate used to close a gas jar while a gas is collected, held briefly or tested in school chemistry practicals. It is made of sheet glass ground on one side, giving a flat face that sits closely on the jar's rim to keep the gas inside. It is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Material | Sheet glass |
| Shape | Circular |
| Colour | Clear |
| Finish | Ground on one side |
| Purpose | Cover for gas jars |
| Product code | SLE/MC/03 |
| Manufacturer | Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) — OEM |
| Country of origin | India (made in Ambala, Haryana) |
In gas preparation experiments, a jar filled with water is inverted in a trough and gas from a delivery tube displaces the water. When the jar is full of gas, the cover is slid under its mouth while still under water, and the covered jar is lifted out. The cover is then moved aside briefly to insert a glowing splint, a burning taper or limewater when testing for oxygen, hydrogen or carbon dioxide, making it a small but essential part of any gas collection apparatus.
Place the ground face against the jar's flange; a thin smear of petroleum jelly on the ground surface improves the seal when a gas must be held for longer. Slide the cover sideways rather than lifting it straight up, handle it by the edges, and store covers flat so the ground face is not chipped.
ScienceLab, the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, is the OEM behind this Gas Jar Cover. The company manufactures the covers at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplies them factory-direct, together with the gas jars and chemistry glassware they accompany, to schools, colleges, dealers and importers.
Because the maker quotes directly, matching covers to existing jars, adding spares or repeating an order next term is straightforward — ask us. Learn more on the company profile.
These items complete a gas collection and testing set-up with the Gas Jar Cover:
More glassware is listed in the Measuring Cylinders category.
What is the Gas Jar Cover made of?
The Gas Jar Cover is made of clear circular sheet glass that is ground on one side. The ground face gives a closer contact with the jar's rim, while the clear glass lets students see the contents and any colour change inside the jar.
What size is the Gas Jar Cover?
The listing does not state a diameter for the Gas Jar Cover. Tell us which gas jar you use, or order it together with the ScienceLab Gas Jar, Glass, and we will confirm a cover that fits the jar's flange before quoting.
Which side of the Gas Jar Cover goes on the jar?
Place the ground side of the Gas Jar Cover against the flange of the gas jar. The ground surface seats more closely than smooth glass, and a light smear of petroleum jelly on it helps hold the gas when the jar must stand for a while.
Who manufactures the Gas Jar Cover?
The Gas Jar Cover is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Orders and quotations are handled by the manufacturer directly, without a trading middleman.

| Country of origin | India (made in Ambala, Haryana) |
Gas jars collect the gases students prepare in chemistry, such as oxygen, hydrogen and carbon dioxide, either over water in a trough or by upward or downward displacement of air. Once filled and covered, the jar is used for identification tests and combustion demonstrations, for example burning sulphur or charcoal on a deflagrating spoon inside the jar. Two jars placed mouth to mouth also make a simple diffusion demonstration.
As borosilicate glassware from India, the jar tolerates the heat of combustion demonstrations, and its heavy foot keeps it steady on the bench. Put a layer of sand or water in the bottom before any combustion demonstration, never heat the jar directly over a flame, and let it cool before washing.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, known by its trading name ScienceLab, is the original equipment manufacturer of the Gas Jar, Glass. The jars are manufactured at the company's licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and dispatched factory-direct to schools, colleges, laboratories, dealers and importers.
As the maker, the company can quote jars and matching covers together and handle breakage replacements or repeat orders directly — ask us for current availability. Visit the ScienceLab profile for more about the company.

Gas Lighter, Piezo (Product Code: SLE/CH/204) is a hand-held igniter that produces sparks when its handle is squeezed, letting students and technicians light a gas burner without matches. It needs no battery and is suitable for igniting the common fuel gases used on laboratory burners, which makes it a routine item on school and college chemistry benches. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, a school science lab equipment manufacturer.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Ignition method | Piezo spark, produced by squeezing the handle |
| Power source | No battery required |
| Suitable for | Igniting the common fuel gases |
To light a Bunsen burner, close the air hole, hold the lighter tip just above the top of the barrel, open the gas tap and squeeze the handle; the spark ignites the gas and a yellow safety flame appears, after which the air hole can be opened for a hotter blue flame. Because the lighter makes sparks rather than its own flame, there are no loose matches or burnt splints on the bench, and nothing to discard afterwards.
Keep the spark tip clean and dry, since soot or moisture can weaken the spark, and hang the lighter on a hook or place it in a drawer after use so it is not left near a hot burner. For a new lab setup in a school, one lighter per bench or per pair of burners keeps practical sessions moving without students queuing for a light.
ScienceLab is the brand name used by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, a laboratory apparatus maker based in Ambala, Haryana. The company is a registered MSME with major activity manufacturing (Udyam UDYAM-HR-01-0003714), and its export shipments are handled under Importer-Exporter Code AAECJ8618A (DGFT). Visit our company profile to learn more.
Burners, tubing and alternative igniters that are used with this lighter:
See the complete Chemistry Lab Equipment range.
Does the lighter need batteries or refilling?
No battery is required. It produces sparks mechanically when the handle is squeezed and does not carry its own fuel.
Which gases can it ignite?
It is suitable for the common fuel gases supplied to laboratory burners. If your lab uses an unusual gas, please check with us through the contact page.
Why is there no flame when I squeeze it?
The lighter makes a spark only; a flame appears when that spark meets flowing gas. Make sure the gas tap is open and the tip is held at the burner mouth.
What if the spark becomes weak?
Wipe the tip to remove soot or moisture and let it dry. If the spark does not return, contact us for advice.
Is a warranty offered?
