Spring Scales, Green, 500 g (5 N) (Product Code: SLE/ME/06) is a tubular spring scale used to measure force in newtons and mass in grams, up to 500 g (5 N), in school physics and general-science practicals. Its green colour-coded ends identify the capacity at a glance, and the clear tubular body carries easy-to-read gram and newton scales that can be fully zeroed. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

A spring scale measures force from the stretch of a calibrated spring. Students suspend an object and read its weight in newtons and its mass in grams at the same time, which makes the link between the two — 500 g corresponds to 5 N on this scale — easy to see. The same scale measures the pull needed to drag a block across a bench in friction experiments and the effort in simple pulley and inclined-plane set-ups, making it a core piece of mechanics lab equipment.
Before each reading, hold the scale in line with the pull and zero it with nothing attached. Choose a capacity close to the forces being measured: this green 500 g (5 N) scale suits lighter loads, and the colour-coded ends make it easy to hand out the right scale when a class works with several capacities at once.
Spring Scales, Green, 500 g (5 N) are produced by ScienceLab — Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited — as OEM (original equipment manufacturer). The scales are made at the company’s own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and dispatched direct to schools, colleges, training institutes, dealers and importers. Repeat orders and questions about other capacities go straight to the manufacturer — ask us. Background is on the ScienceLab company profile.
Force and mass practicals often use these alongside the spring scale:

What is the capacity of the Spring Scales, Green, 500 g (5 N)?
The Spring Scales, Green, 500 g (5 N) (SLE/ME/06) measures up to 500 g of mass or 5 N of force. Its scale is calibrated in both grams and newtons, so students read mass and force directly without converting between units.
Why does the 500 g spring scale have green ends?
The green colour-coded ends identify this spring scale’s 500 g (5 N) capacity. When a class works with scales of several capacities, colour coding helps teachers and students pick the right one quickly and avoid overloading a lower-range scale.
Can the 500 g (5 N) spring scale be zeroed?
Yes. The Spring Scales, Green, 500 g (5 N) can be fully zeroed. Zero it with nothing attached, holding it in the same orientation as the measurement, so that readings in grams and newtons start from a true zero every time.
Which experiments is the 500 g spring scale used for?
The green 500 g (5 N) spring scale suits experiments on weight and mass, friction, simple machines such as pulleys and inclined planes, and the stretching of springs. Its clear tubular body lets students watch the spring extend as the load increases.
Who manufactures the Spring Scales, Green, 500 g (5 N)?
The Spring Scales, Green, 500 g (5 N) is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd, trading as ScienceLab, the OEM for this instrument. It is made at the company’s own factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and schools and dealers receive quotations directly from the manufacturer.
Is a calibration certificate available for the 500 g spring scale?
The product description of the Spring Scales, Green, 500 g (5 N) does not mention a calibration certificate. If your laboratory or tender needs calibration documentation, please raise it through the contact page so that availability can be discussed before ordering.
Can the 500 g spring scale be ordered in bulk or for export?
Yes. ScienceLab supplies the green 500 g (5 N) spring scale in class sets and larger quantities to schools, colleges, distributors and importers in India and international markets. Send the quantity, any other capacities and your delivery location through the contact page for a quotation.
