Metal Density Cubes (Set of 6) (Product Code: SLE/PHY/58) is a set of six equal-sized metal cubes used to show how density differs from one metal to another in physics and general science lessons. Because every cube has a 20 mm side, students can compare brass, lead, zinc, copper, aluminium and iron simply by weighing them, a staple of school physics lab equipment in India. The set is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Cubes per set | 6 |
| Side length | 20 mm (2 cm) |
| Volume of each cube | 8 cm³ (calculated from the 20 mm side) |
| Metals | Brass, lead, zinc, copper, aluminium and iron |
| Product code | SLE/PHY/58 |
| Manufacturer | Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) — OEM |
| Country of origin | India (made in Ambala, Haryana) |
Equal volume is the whole point of this set. Since each cube measures 2 cm along every edge, its volume is 8 cm³, so dividing the mass in grams by 8 gives the density in g/cm³ directly. Before weighing, ask students to rank the cubes by feel and then check their predictions on a balance — the gap between aluminium and lead usually surprises them.
The cubes also support class 9 density and relative density lessons in a science lab kit, and older students can measure the edges with a vernier caliper to confirm the volume rather than assuming it. Keep the six cubes together in a labelled tray or box, and remind learners to wash their hands after handling lead.
These density cubes come from Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab and acts as their OEM (original equipment manufacturer). They are produced at the company’s own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, rather than bought in from a trader, so schools, dealers and importers deal with the maker for quotations and repeat orders. Company background is on the ScienceLab profile page.

Which metals are included in the Metal Density Cubes (Set of 6)?
The Metal Density Cubes (Set of 6) includes one cube each of brass, lead, zinc, copper, aluminium and iron, giving a spread from light to heavy metals for density comparisons.
What size is each cube in the Metal Density Cubes (Set of 6)?
Each cube in the Metal Density Cubes (Set of 6) has a 20 mm side. That gives every cube a volume of 8 cm³, so mass in grams divided by 8 gives density in g/cm³.
How does the Set of 6 differ from the Metal Density Cube Set?
The Metal Density Cubes (Set of 6) contains six 20 mm cubes including zinc. The Metal Density Cube Set has seven 20 mm cubes and swaps zinc for steel and tin.
Who manufactures the Metal Density Cubes (Set of 6)?
Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) is the OEM manufacturer of the Metal Density Cubes (Set of 6), producing them at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India.
Do students need a measuring cylinder to use the Metal Density Cubes (Set of 6)?
No. The Metal Density Cubes (Set of 6) are regular 20 mm cubes, so volume comes from the side length. A balance is needed for mass; a measuring cylinder is optional for a displacement cross-check.
How can I get a quotation for the Metal Density Cubes (Set of 6)?
Send the number of Metal Density Cubes (Set of 6) sets, any balances or calipers needed and your delivery location through the contact page; the quotation comes from the manufacturer.
