Mounting an insect collection means switching between pins of several thicknesses, and loose pins on a bench are easily mixed up or spilled. With one size in each of the twelve holes, students can pick the right pin at a glance, and the block keeps every pin upright and ready while they work over a pinning board. Spare holes can take other small items, such as a fine brush, a labelling pen or a spare needle.
Write the pin size beside each hole with a fine marker so the sorting stays consistent from one class to the next. Keep the holder on the side of the bench away from the specimen so hands do not reach across fragile insects. As a wooden item it should be kept dry and wiped rather than washed. It is a small but useful part of an insect collection kit for school and college biology labs.
ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of this insect pin holder. It is produced at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplied direct from the manufacturer to schools, colleges, museums, dealers and importers, not through a trading middleman. Repeat orders for matching lab sets are handled by the factory team, so ask us. Background is on the company profile page.
