In a heating practical the sheet goes down first, and the tripod stand, wire gauze and burner are arranged on top of it so the whole set-up stands on one flat, level surface. Its plain face is also a resting place for a hot crucible or beaker lifted off the tripod with crucible tongs, keeping hot glassware off wooden or laminated benches. Giving every workstation the same square base lets a teacher see at a glance whether each group has kept its flame and hot apparatus inside its own area.
Keep the sheet flat and supported over its full area, and do not cut, drill, sand or break it, because damaging the surface can release dust. Clean it with a lightly damp cloth rather than brushing it dry, let it dry before the next session, and withdraw any sheet that is cracked, chipped or crumbling at the edges, disposing of it according to your local rules.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, sources and supplies the Asbestos Sheet Plain alongside the burners, tripods and other heating apparatus in its Chemistry Lab range. Because rules on this type of material vary, ask us to confirm its exact composition before you order.
Institutions and dealers in India and international markets can buy it together with the rest of their lab list on one quotation. More about the company is on our company profile.

What size is the Asbestos Sheet Plain?
The Asbestos Sheet Plain is a square sheet measuring 2 ft x 2 ft, with a thickness of 6 mm and a plain pattern, sized to sit under a burner and tripod as one flat heating base on a laboratory bench.
What material is the Asbestos Sheet Plain made of?
The Asbestos Sheet Plain is catalogued under that name, and no further composition details are listed. Rules on asbestos-containing materials differ between institutions and countries, so please confirm the exact composition with us through our contact page before ordering, especially for export.
Can the sheet be cut to fit a smaller bench?
We advise against cutting, drilling or sanding the Asbestos Sheet Plain, because damaging the surface can release dust. Tell us your bench dimensions instead, and we will advise on the options before you order.
Can the sheet be put directly over a flame?
The Asbestos Sheet Plain is intended as a flat base on the bench, not as a heating surface over a flame. To heat a beaker or flask, stand a tripod with wire gauze on the sheet and heat the vessel on the gauze.
How should the Asbestos Sheet Plain be cleaned?
Wipe the Asbestos Sheet Plain with a lightly damp cloth rather than brushing it dry, avoid abrasive pads, and let it dry fully before the next practical. Withdraw any sheet that is cracked, chipped or crumbling and dispose of it according to local rules.
Who supplies the Asbestos Sheet Plain?
The Asbestos Sheet Plain is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India. It can be quoted together with burners, tripods, gauzes and tubing, so a complete heating station comes from one supplier.
