What Is the Wire Cutter Used For?

Most electricity practicals start with wire preparation: cutting connecting wire to length, twisting and bending the ends so they clamp neatly under terminal screws, and trimming resistance wire for meter bridge or potentiometer work. The jaws of the wire cutter grip and shape the wire while its cutting edges snip it cleanly.

Cut only with the power disconnected. The handles are insulated for grip, but no voltage rating is stated, so the tool must never be used on live circuits. Hold the offcut so it does not fly, wipe the tool after use and keep it in a drawer or tool kit to protect the cutting edges.

Supplier

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, supplies this wire cutter from Ambala, Haryana, with the wiring accessories that go with its physics apparatus. Schools setting up electricity benches often order hand tools together with wires, keys and meters so that each bench is ready to use on arrival.

D Scale for Measuring Angles (Product Code: SCL-308/052) is a large plyboard protractor used to set out and read angles during physics lessons and practicals. With a radius of about 30 cm and markings from 0° to 90° at 15° intervals, it can be read by a whole class and handled easily on the bench. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India, for mechanics lab equipment buyers in India and abroad.

Specifications

ParameterDetail
TypeProtractor (D scale)
MaterialPlyboard
RadiusAbout 30 cm
Scale range0° to 90°
Graduation interval15°
Product codeSCL-308/052
ManufacturerJain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) — OEM
Country of originIndia (made in Ambala, Haryana)

What Is the D Scale Used For?

The D scale works as a demonstration-size protractor. Teachers use it at the front of the room to show how an angle is measured from a baseline, and students use it on the bench to set the angle of an inclined plane, check the tilt of a board or mark directions for force and ray diagrams. The large 15° steps make standard angles quick to set without hunting for fine divisions.

Because it is graduated in 15° steps rather than single degrees, it is meant for setting and demonstrating angles rather than precise measurement; pair it with a handheld protractor when a reading to the nearest degree is needed. Lay the straight edge along the baseline, align the centre with the vertex, and store the plyboard flat and dry so it stays true.

OEM Manufacturer

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab, is the OEM for the D Scale for Measuring Angles and makes it at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, dealers and importers deal directly with the maker for quotations, repeat orders and replacements; ask us about availability.

Product codeSCL-312/054
Supplied byJain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India

What Is the Water Pipe with Metallic Nozzle Used For?

In the physics lab the pipe carries water from a tap to where it is needed: filling containers and reservoirs, rinsing apparatus, or feeding set-ups that need a steady supply. The narrow metal nozzle concentrates the flow into a thin, faster jet, which helps when water must be directed precisely and shows students that the same flow speeds up through a smaller opening.

Push the pipe fully onto the tap or push-to-connect fitting before opening the tap, turn the water on slowly and keep the nozzle pointed away from electrical apparatus. Drain the pipe after use and coil it loosely; it resists weathering and abrasion, but sharp kinks still restrict the flow.

Supplier

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited supplies this water pipe under its ScienceLab trading name from Ambala, Haryana. It is offered alongside the physics apparatus that needs a water supply, so schools can source the pipe with the rest of their lab order instead of from a separate hardware shop.

Split Cork

Product Code : SCL-314/055

Split Cork (Product Code: SCL-314/055) is a cork cut into two halves, used to grip a thread or thin rod in the jaws of a clamp stand in school physics laboratories. Its common use is the simple pendulum experiment, where the thread is held between the halves so the point of suspension stays fixed. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, for schools assembling simple pendulum apparatus in India.

Key Details

Product codeSCL-314/055
Supplied byJain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India

What Is the Split Cork Used For?

In the simple pendulum experiment, the thread from the bob is passed between the two halves of the split cork and the cork is tightened in the jaws of a clamp stand. The flat faces pinch the thread so the length from the point of suspension to the bob stays constant and the thread does not slip or twist while oscillations are timed.

The same approach holds a thin wire or glass tube gently in a clamp where bare metal jaws would grip too hard. Keep the two halves together as a pair, clamp firmly but not so hard that the thread is cut, and measure the pendulum length from the lower face of the cork.

Supplier

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, supplies split corks from Ambala, Haryana, for schools and colleges putting together pendulum and clamp-stand set-ups. Size details are not given on this listing, so the exact item is confirmed with each quotation. See the ScienceLab company profile for company details.

All pendulum and mechanics items are in the Physics Lab category.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Split Cork used for in physics?
A Split Cork holds a pendulum thread firmly in a clamp stand. The thread passes between the two halves of the cork, which are then clamped, fixing the point of suspension so the length stays constant while oscillations are timed.

Why use a Split Cork instead of tying the thread to the clamp?
A Split Cork gives a sharp, fixed point of suspension, whereas thread tied around a clamp can slip, twist or swing about a blurred pivot. The fixed point makes the measured length and timed period more consistent between trials.

What size is the Split Cork?
Size details for the Split Cork are not listed on this page. Please ask through the ScienceLab contact page for the dimensions of the current supply, and mention the clamp you use so the cork suits its jaws.

How tightly should the Split Cork be clamped?
Clamp the Split Cork firmly enough that the thread cannot slide, but not so tightly that the cork crumbles or cuts the thread. Then measure the pendulum length from the lower face of the cork to the centre of the bob.

Who supplies the Split Cork?
ScienceLab, the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd in Ambala, Haryana, India, supplies the Split Cork. Schools and dealers in India and international markets usually order it with bobs, thread, stands and stop clocks so the pendulum set-up arrives together.

What does a quotation for the Split Cork need?
A quotation for the Split Cork needs the product code SCL-314/055, the quantity and your delivery location. Adding the other pendulum items you need, such as bob, thread, stand and stop clock, lets ScienceLab quote the complete set together.

Product codeSCL-316/056
Supplied byJain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India

What Is the Steel Ball Used For?

A steel ball is a simple, dense mass for motion experiments. Rolled down an inclined plane it shows acceleration and the change from potential to kinetic energy; dropped from a measured height it can be timed for free fall; and two balls meeting on a track illustrate momentum transfer. Its round shape lets it roll freely along a guide.

Use a groove or channel to keep the ball on course in rolling experiments, and catch it on a rubber pad or in a tray after a fall so it does not dent benches or floors. Wipe it dry after handling to prevent rust spots, and measuring its diameter with a Vernier calliper makes a quick warm-up exercise.

Supplier

ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, Ambala, which supplies this steel ball for school and college mechanics practicals. For vendor registration and export paperwork, the supplying company holds Importer-Exporter Code AAECJ8618A (DGFT) and GSTIN 06AAECJ8618A1ZT. Further background is on the ScienceLab company profile.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the diameter of the Steel Ball?
The Steel Ball (SCL-316/056) has a diameter of 2.5 cm. Students can confirm this with a Vernier calliper as a measurement exercise before using the ball in rolling, falling or collision experiments.

What is the Steel Ball made of?
The Steel Ball is made of steel, silver in colour and round in shape. Steel gives a dense, hard ball that resists denting in collisions and rolls freely along a guide, which suits school mechanics experiments.

Can the Steel Ball be used as a pendulum bob?
The Steel Ball has no hook listed, so it is not set up as a pendulum bob. For pendulum work the Bob/Metallic Sphere (Small) With Hooks is the direct choice; use the steel ball for rolling, falling and collision work.

How should the Steel Ball be stored?
Keep the Steel Ball dry and wipe off fingerprints after use to prevent rust spots. Store it in a tray or box where it cannot roll off shelves, because a falling steel ball can chip floors, benches or glassware.

Who supplies the Steel Ball?

Country of originIndia (made in Ambala, Haryana)

What Is the Wooden Block Used For?

In friction practicals the block rests on a horizontal surface or an inclined plane and is pulled with a spring balance, or by weights hung over a pulley, until it just begins to move. Loading it with slotted masses shows how friction changes with the normal force, and its flat square faces give a steady contact area while its 2 cm height keeps it low and stable.

The block also serves as a spacer under one end of a board or track, a stop at the foot of a ramp, or a rest that raises small apparatus. Keep its faces clean and dry and use the same face when comparing surfaces, so that each trial compares materials rather than dust.

OEM Manufacturer

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, is the OEM of this wooden block and makes it at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Buying from the manufacturer lets a school or dealer order blocks in class quantities with its friction and inclined-plane apparatus, and repeat orders are handled by the same maker; ask us about quantities.
