Test Tube Clips (Product Code: SCI-524/017) is a wooden test tube holder used to grip a single test tube while it is heated, shaken or poured in school and college laboratories. Because wood is a poor conductor of heat, students can hold a hot tube over a flame at a safe distance instead of touching the glass, which makes the clip basic school chemistry lab equipment. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

The clip is used whenever a test tube should not be held by hand: heating a liquid or solid over a spirit lamp or burner, carrying a tube that holds a corrosive reagent, or shaking a warm mixture. Grip the tube near its mouth, about a third of the way down, so that the clip stays well above the flame and the lower part of the tube can be heated evenly.
When heating a liquid, tilt the tube, point the mouth away from yourself and others, and move it gently in the flame so that the contents do not bump out. Keep the wooden clip itself out of the flame, as it can scorch, and let it cool before storing it. A set of clips alongside test tubes and a rack forms a basic chemistry experiment kit for each bench.
Test Tube Clips are made by ScienceLab, the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) and produces them at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, colleges, dealers and importers order them factory-direct, and bulk or repeat quantities are quoted by the manufacturer itself rather than through a middleman.

What are the Test Tube Clips made of?
The Test Tube Clips are made of wood. Wood conducts heat poorly, so the clip stays comfortable to hold while the test tube it grips is warmed over a spirit lamp or burner.
Which test tube sizes do the clips fit?
The grip size of the Test Tube Clips is not stated in the listing. Tell us the diameters of the test tubes you use through the contact page, and we will confirm the fit before quoting.
How should a test tube be held for heating?
Clamp the tube in the Test Tube Clips near its mouth, tilt it away from people, heat the lower part gently while moving it in the flame, and never point the open end towards yourself or others.
Can the clip go into the flame?
No. The Test Tube Clips are wooden, so only the glass tube should be in the flame. Keep the clip above the heat, and put it aside to cool if it becomes warm or shows scorching.
Who manufactures the Test Tube Clips?
Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) is the OEM of the Test Tube Clips and manufactures them at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, supplying institutions, dealers and importers directly.
Can the clips be ordered in bulk for schools?
The Test Tube Clips can be quoted in class-set or bulk quantities for schools, tenders and distributors in India and international markets. Send the quantity and delivery location through the contact page to receive a quotation from the manufacturer.
