Mini Science Kit - Heat (Product Code: SLE/CH/166) is a topic kit used to teach heat and temperature through hands-on activities in school science classrooms. It covers seven activities, from changing states and melting to keeping things warm or cold and finding out which materials are thermal insulators. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India, as a heat energy science kit for group investigations.

Activities performed with this kit:
It gives pupils a reason to measure rather than guess. A memorable way into the "Hot or cold?" activity is the classic three-bowl test: after one hand has been in cool water and the other in warm, lukewarm water feels different to each hand, showing that touch is an unreliable judge of temperature. Pupils then practise reading temperatures and watch ice melt and change state, noting how long it takes in different places around the room.
The keeping-warm and keeping-cold activities are two sides of one idea. Groups wrap identical containers of warm water, or of ice, in different materials and record the temperature at regular intervals; the most effective wrapping slows heat moving in either direction, which answers which materials are thermal insulators. Plotting the readings as simple line graphs lets groups compare results, making this science kit for students in India a natural bridge between practical work and data handling.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited (CIN U29309HR2020PTC087597), trading as ScienceLab, is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of the Mini Science Kit - Heat. The kit is made and assembled at the company's own licensed factory at 449, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, Haryana (Factory Licence AMB-ONLINE-CHD-J-414), and supplied factory-direct to schools, institutions, dealers and importers. Repeat orders and requests for replacement items come straight to the manufacturer, so just ask us. More details are on our company profile.

What activities does the Mini Science Kit - Heat cover?
The Mini Science Kit - Heat covers seven activities: changing states, melting, looking at temperature, how to keep things cold, how to keep things warm, hot or cold, and which materials are thermal insulators.
Are thermometers included?
The component list of the Mini Science Kit - Heat is not published on this page, so please confirm the contents through our contact page. Digital thermometers can be quoted separately if you need extra ones for group work.
Do we need a burner or hot plate?
Several Mini Science Kit - Heat activities can be run with warm tap water and ice rather than a flame. If your lesson plan does involve heating, follow your school's laboratory safety procedures and supervise pupils closely.
What is a thermal insulator?
A thermal insulator is a material that slows the flow of heat, such as wool, foam or air trapped in fabric. The Mini Science Kit - Heat lets pupils compare materials to find which keep hot things hot and cold things cold for longest.
Who manufactures the Mini Science Kit - Heat?
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited (ScienceLab) is the OEM that manufactures the Mini Science Kit - Heat at its own factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplies it factory-direct to schools, dealers and importers in India and international markets.
How should the kit be cared for?
After each lesson with the Mini Science Kit - Heat, dry any containers and materials that were used, check that nothing is cracked or missing, and store the kit closed in a dry cupboard so it is ready for the next class.
Can you supply class sets?
Yes. The Mini Science Kit - Heat can be quoted in class sets for schools, school networks and dealers in India and international markets; include the number of kits, any extra thermometers and the delivery location in your enquiry.
Quotations for the Mini Science Kit - Heat come directly from the manufacturer. Send your requirement through our contact page, or add the kit to the enquiry cart together with thermometers and other heat-topic resources.
