Electroscope in Flask, Gold Leaf

Product Code : SLE/PHY/166

Electroscope in Flask, Gold Leaf (Product Code: SLE/PHY/166) is a simple charge detector used to show whether an object carries static electricity in school physics lessons. A glass conical flask encloses the gold leaf, which hangs from a brass rod held in a rubber bung, so air currents in the room do not disturb the leaf. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

What Is the Flask Gold Leaf Electroscope Used For?

Bring a charged rod near the top of the brass rod and the gold leaf lifts away, because the charge it receives repels the like charge on the rod; take the rod away and the leaf settles again. Students use it to detect charge, to compare how well different materials charge when rubbed, and to see the difference between charging by contact and by induction. It is an affordable starting point when equipping a school physics lab in India with electrostatics apparatus.

Work in a dry room, since humid air lets charge leak away quickly. Keep the flask upright, avoid touching the leaf, and ease the bung out gently when fitting a new leaf — gold leaf is extremely thin and tears easily.

What to Specify When Ordering

  • The number of flask electroscopes needed for demonstration or student groups.
  • How many replacement gold leaves you want, as these are available separately.
  • Friction rods and cloths for charging, if your lab does not already have them.

Electroscope, Gold Leaf

Product Code : SLE/PHY/167

Electroscope, Gold Leaf (Product Code: SLE/PHY/167) is a metal-cased electrostatic instrument used to detect charge and compare its size in secondary school and college physics labs. A single gold leaf attaches to a metal plate held on an insulating bush, and a scale lets students measure how far the leaf deflects. It is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM, at its own factory in Ambala, India, as part of its range of physics lab instruments.

Specifications

ParameterDetail
DesignDual purpose gold leaf electroscope
Leaf mountingMetal plate to which a single gold leaf may be attached
InsulationPlate supported by an insulating bush
HousingMetal case
Earthing4 mm socket earthing terminal
MeasurementScale provided for measuring the deflection of the leaf
SparesReplacement gold leaves available separately
Product codeSLE/PHY/167
ManufacturerJain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) — OEM
Country of originIndia (made in Ambala, Haryana)

What Is the Gold Leaf Electroscope Used For?

With its scale, this electroscope takes students beyond a yes-or-no answer: they can compare deflections when a rod is rubbed with different cloths, watch the leaf fall as charge leaks away, and record the results in a table. The earthing terminal takes a 4 mm lead, so the case can be earthed whenever an experiment calls for it, and the instrument works well alongside Faraday's pails for charge-distribution studies.

Charging by induction is a classic exercise: hold a charged rod near the plate, touch the plate briefly to earth, remove the earth connection and then the rod, and the leaf stays deflected with the opposite charge. Store the electroscope in a dry cupboard, because moisture on the insulating bush lets charge leak away and shortens readings.

What to Specify When Ordering

  • The number of instruments for demonstration or group practicals.
  • The quantity of replacement gold leaves, which are supplied separately.
  • 4 mm earthing leads, if your lab does not already stock them.
  • Charging accessories such as friction rods, cloths or a proof plane.

OEM Manufacturer

ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which manufactures this gold leaf electroscope as the OEM at its own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana. Buying from the maker means spare leaves and repeat orders are discussed with the same company that produces the instrument. Institutional and tender buyers who need vendor registration details can note GSTIN 06AAECJ8618A1ZT and LEI 3358004HRD1JIVXKYX49. Learn more on our company profile.

Electroscope, Needle

Product Code : SLE/PHY/168

Electroscope, Needle (Product Code: SLE/PHY/168) is a vane-type electroscope used to show and measure electrostatic charge in physics classrooms and labs. Instead of a fragile leaf, a light-weight metal vane acts as the pointer and swings across a graduated scale when the plate is charged, giving hands-on experience with electrostatic principles. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Key Details

ParameterDetail
PointerLight-weight metal vane (blade) that deflects when the electroscope plate is charged
ScaleGraduated scale for measuring the angle of deflection
WallsSheet metal
Base and topPlastic
Front windowGlass; slides up to allow ionising material to be inserted into the chamber
Product codeSLE/PHY/168
ManufacturerJain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) — OEM
Country of originIndia (made in Ambala, Haryana)

What Is the Needle Electroscope Used For?

Because the vane's angle can be read off the graduated scale, students can compare charge levels, time how fast charge decays and plot simple graphs — a step up from purely qualitative observation. The robust vane also stands up to repeated student handling better than a leaf, which makes this a practical item of physics lab equipment for schools in India running regular electrostatics practicals.

The sliding glass window gives access to the chamber, so a teacher can place ionising material inside and show that ionised air makes the charged vane fall back as the charge is neutralised. Any radioactive source must be handled under your institution's safety rules; no source is listed as part of this item.

OEM Manufacturer

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited (trading as ScienceLab) is the original equipment manufacturer of this needle electroscope. Production takes place at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, and finished instruments go straight from the factory to schools, colleges, laboratory dealers and importers. If you need a replacement part later, ask us — you will be dealing with the manufacturer, not a middleman. Company background is on our profile page.

It brings together various friction rods and fabrics with a pith ball suspended from a support, so students can charge a rod and watch the ball respond. The kit is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Key Details

ParameterDetail
Kit typeElectrostatics investigation kit
Charging itemsVarious friction rods and fabrics
IndicatorPith ball suspended from the support
DemonstratesAttraction and repulsion of electric charges
Product codeSLE/PHY/169
ManufacturerJain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) — OEM
Country of originIndia (made in Ambala, Haryana)

What Is the Electrostatic Investigation Kit Used For?

Students rub a rod with one of the fabrics and bring it close to the hanging pith ball. At first the ball is pulled towards the rod; once it touches, it shares the rod's charge and is pushed away. Repeating this with different rod and fabric pairs lets a class compare which combinations charge best, making the set a simple physics experiment kit for school electrostatics topics.

Clear results depend on dry conditions, so run the activity away from open windows on humid days and wipe the rods clean before use. The individual rods and fabrics are not itemised, so confirm the kit contents with us if your syllabus names particular materials.

What to Specify When Ordering

  • The number of kits for your student groups.
  • Any specific rod or fabric materials your syllabus requires, so we can confirm them against the kit contents.
  • An electroscope, if you also want to detect and compare charge with a scale.

OEM Manufacturer

This kit comes from Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab and acts as the OEM for its educational apparatus. The company makes its products at its own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, and deals directly with schools, training institutes, dealers and importers, so quotations and follow-up questions are answered by the maker itself.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is included in the Electrostatic Investigation kit?
The Electrostatic Investigation kit contains various friction rods and fabrics for electrostatic experiments, plus a pith ball suspended from a support. The exact rod and fabric types are not itemised, so ask us to confirm the list before ordering.

What does the Electrostatic Investigation kit demonstrate?
The Electrostatic Investigation kit demonstrates attraction and repulsion. A charged rod first attracts the suspended pith ball; once the ball touches the rod and shares its charge, the two repel, showing clearly that like charges push apart.

Which classes can use the Electrostatic Investigation kit?
The Electrostatic Investigation kit suits middle and secondary school science, where static electricity is first introduced, and it also works as a quick warm-up demonstration in higher classes before moving on to electroscopes and Van de Graaff generator experiments.

Why does the pith ball sometimes fail to move?
Humidity is the usual reason: moist air lets charge leak from the rods of the Electrostatic Investigation kit before it reaches the pith ball. Work in a dry room, keep the rods clean and rub them briskly for a clear response.

Who makes the Electrostatic Investigation kit?
The Electrostatic Investigation kit is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, Haryana, India, and it is supplied factory-direct to schools, dealers and importers.

PurposeDemonstrating the different thermal expansions of various liquids
Product codeSLE/PHY/171
ManufacturerJain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) — OEM
Country of originIndia (made in Ambala, Haryana)

What Is the Expansion of Liquids Apparatus Used For?

Fill each bulb to the same starting level with a different liquid — for example water, alcohol, glycerine or a light oil — then pour hot water into the trough. As the liquids warm together, their columns rise by different amounts, giving a clear visual comparison of how expansion depends on the liquid. It is a staple among the thermometry apparatus that schools in India use for heat and temperature topics.

The funnel tops make filling quick and reduce spills, and because the bulbs clip into the sliding frame they can be lifted out for emptying and cleaning. Handle the glass with care, let hot water cool before draining the trough, and label each bulb so students know which liquid is which.

OEM Manufacturer

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, is the original equipment manufacturer of this apparatus. The company (CIN U29309HR2020PTC087597) carries out production at its licensed factory at 449, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala (Factory Licence AMB-ONLINE-CHD-J-414). Buying from the factory means the quotation, the dispatch and any later question about replacement glassware come from one source. Read our company profile.

Smallest pail75 mm dia x 75 mm high
Product codeSLE/PHY/172
ManufacturerJain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) — OEM
Country of originIndia (made in Ambala, Haryana)

What Are Faraday's Pails Used For?

In the classic ice-pail experiment, a charged object is lowered into a pail connected to an electroscope: the reading rises as the object enters and then stays the same wherever the object sits inside, showing that the induced charge appears on the outer surface. Nesting the four pails lets students go further, testing electrostatic shielding and charge transfer between concentric conductors.

The insulating feet keep each pail isolated from whatever it stands on, so charge stays where the experiment puts it. Keep the feet clean and dry, since dust or moisture lets charge leak away. The set is a natural addition when building an electrostatics bench as part of physics lab equipment for schools and colleges in India.

What to Specify When Ordering

  • The number of sets required (each set is four nesting pails).
  • An electroscope or coulomb meter for reading the charge, if not already in your lab.
  • A charge source, such as friction rods or a Van de Graaff generator.

OEM Manufacturer

ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the OEM that makes these pails at its own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana. Institutions, dealers and importers order straight from the manufacturer, so quotations, repeat sets and questions about individual pails are answered by the company that makes them.

What are Faraday's Pails made of?
Faraday's Pails are aluminium, cylindrical containers, each fitted with insulating feet. Aluminium conducts well and keeps the set light, while the feet isolate every pail from the bench or from the larger pail it stands in.

What experiment are Faraday's Pails used for?
Faraday's Pails are used for the ice-pail experiment, which shows that charge induced by an object inside a hollow conductor appears on its outer surface, and for shielding and charge-transfer studies using the nested containers.

Do Faraday's Pails come with an electroscope?
No electroscope is listed with Faraday's Pails; the set comprises the four aluminium containers. Pair it with a gold leaf electroscope or a coulomb meter from our physics range to read the charge, and ask us to quote both together.

Floating Magnets – Coloured

Product Code : SLE/PHY/173

Floating Magnets – Coloured (Product Code: SLE/PHY/173) is a magnet demonstration set used to show magnetic repulsion in primary and secondary school science classes. Five coloured ceramic magnets, each 32 mm in external diameter, are mounted on a 150 mm high wooden pole and hover apart when like poles face each other. The set is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Specifications

ParameterDetail
MagnetsSet of 5 ceramic magnets, coloured
Magnet size32 mm external diameter
SupportWooden pole, 150 mm high
DemonstratesMagnetic repulsion forces
Product codeSLE/PHY/173
ManufacturerJain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) — OEM
Country of originIndia (made in Ambala, Haryana)

What Are Floating Magnets Used For?

When the magnets are stacked on the pole with like poles facing, each one floats above the next, and pressing the top magnet down lets students feel the repulsive force pushing back. Turning one magnet over so that unlike poles face makes it snap onto its neighbour, giving an instant contrast between attraction and repulsion. It is a quick, visual addition to any magnetism experiment kit in Indian classrooms.

Students can also notice that the gaps are smaller towards the bottom, because the lower magnets carry the weight of those above — a neat link between magnetic force and gravity. Keep the set away from computers and magnetic cards, and do not drop the ceramic magnets, which can chip.

OEM Manufacturer

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited — the company behind the ScienceLab name — is the OEM for this floating magnet set and makes its magnetism apparatus at its own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana. Schools and distributors deal directly with the manufacturer, and questions about spare magnets or repeat sets go to the same source; just ask us. Company background is on our profile page.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many magnets are in Floating Magnets – Coloured?
Floating Magnets – Coloured contains a set of 5 ceramic magnets, each with a 32 mm external diameter, mounted on a 150 mm high wooden pole so they can float above one another by magnetic repulsion.

What are the floating magnets made of?
The magnets in Floating Magnets – Coloured are ceramic magnets. Ceramic magnets are strong for their size but brittle, so students should lift them off the wooden pole gently and avoid dropping them onto hard floors.

What does Floating Magnets – Coloured demonstrate?
Floating Magnets – Coloured illustrates magnetic repulsion forces: with like poles facing, each magnet hovers above the next. Reversing one magnet shows attraction instead, so both behaviours can be compared in one short demonstration.

Is Floating Magnets – Coloured suitable for young learners?
Floating Magnets – Coloured suits primary and middle school science because the effect is visible without instruments. Supervise younger children, as small magnets should never be swallowed and ceramic pieces can chip if dropped.
