Tape

Product Code : SCL109/1.3

Tape (Product Code: SCL109/1.3) is a metal measuring tape for taking lengths, widths and spans from one point to another during practical work. Teachers and students use it to mark out distances for motion experiments, measure benches and apparatus, and record outdoor dimensions in geography and environmental projects. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, as part of its school laboratory equipment range for institutions in India and international markets.

Typical Use

In a physics period the tape is laid along the floor or bench to set a known distance for a trolley run, a falling-object drop or a sound-echo measurement, so students can pair a measured length with a timed reading. It is equally handy for sizing up a room before a lab layout change, checking the spacing of stands, or marking plots in the school garden for an ecology survey. As mechanics lab equipment in India goes, a simple tape remains one of the most frequently borrowed items in the prep room.

For a clean reading, set the end-clip exactly on the starting mark, run the tape straight without twists or sag, and read the value squarely from above. On a long span one student can anchor the clip against a fixed object while another reads the far end. Tape measures commonly offer a clip for hooking onto a fixed edge, a brake on steel-blade types that locks the blade, or a side crank on longer cloth tapes; ask us which of these features the current version of this item carries.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is this tape made of?
It is listed as a metal tape. The blade length and graduation style are not stated in our current product details, so contact us for these before ordering.

How do I measure a long span on my own?
Anchor the end-clip on a fixed edge or object at the starting point, then walk the tape out to the far point and read it there. Keep the tape taut and straight for a true reading.

Does it have a blade lock or a rewind crank?
Not confirmed for this item. Locking brakes are common on steel-blade tapes and cranks on longer cloth tapes; we will confirm the exact features of the version we supply on request.

How should the tape be cared for?
Wipe off dust or moisture after outdoor use, let it dry before winding back, and avoid bending or kinking the tape so that the markings stay readable.

Is a calibration certificate available?
Please discuss calibration documentation with our team when you enquire; we will tell you what can be provided for this item.

What should an institutional quotation request include?
Mention the product name and code (SCL109/1.3), the quantity, the delivery location and any tender format you need. We supply schools and distributors in India and international markets.
