Pocket Magnifier
Pocket Magnifier (Product Code: SLE/M/86) is a folding 10X magnifier loupe used to examine leaves, insects, rocks, fabrics and fine print during field trips, nature walks and lab practicals. Its two plano-convex lenses sit in a mount that folds into the case, so the glass stays protected in a pocket or kit bag, and the whole unit is lightweight. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

What Is the Pocket Magnifier Used For?
A 10X pocket lens is the first optical tool most students carry into the field. In botany it shows leaf hairs, vein networks and the parts of small flowers; in zoology it reveals insect wing veins, spider eyes and the scales on a moth wing; in geography and geology it helps judge grain size and spot crystals in a rock sample. Teachers also use it for checking fabric weave, seed surfaces and printed detail in general science lessons.
Pairing two plano-convex lenses gives a stronger magnification in a small package than a single simple lens. For a sharp view, hold the Pocket Magnifier close to the eye and bring the specimen towards it until it snaps into focus, working in good daylight or under a lamp. Fold the lens back into its case after use to keep it free of scratches and grit. It is a simple way to give every child a hand lens magnifier in school science lessons across India.

Frequently Asked Questions
What magnification does the Pocket Magnifier give?
The Pocket Magnifier gives 10X magnification from two plano-convex lenses used together. That is enough to see fine hairs on leaves, insect wing veins and mineral grains that are hard to make out with the naked eye.
How are the lenses of the Pocket Magnifier protected?
The lens mount of the Pocket Magnifier folds into its case. When closed, the lenses are shielded, so the magnifier can travel in a pocket, pencil box or field bag without the glass being scratched or picking up grit.
What size is the Pocket Magnifier?
The Pocket Magnifier’s listed dimensions are 15 × 25 mm, and it is lightweight enough to carry in a shirt pocket. If your tender needs the closed case size or the weight, please ask us through the contact page.
How should students use a 10X pocket magnifier?
Hold the Pocket Magnifier close to the eye and move the specimen, not the lens, until it comes into sharp focus. Good light from a window or lamp makes a big difference at 10X, especially with dark specimens.
Who supplies the Pocket Magnifier?
Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, supplies the Pocket Magnifier in class quantities to schools, colleges, nature clubs and distributors in India and international markets, often alongside microscopes and slide accessories.
