Sand Paper Sheets

Product Code : SCL-591/044

Sand Paper Sheets (Product Code: SCL-591/044) are abrasive cloth sheets made with extra sharp particles for faster cutting, suited to removing rust and corrosion and to general metal sanding work. In school and college practicals they are used to rub metal strips, ribbons, wires and electrodes down to bright, clean metal before an experiment, so that an oxide or rust layer does not slow a reaction or spoil an electrical contact. Every electrochemical cell kit in a school lab needs a supply of them. The sheets are supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Typical Use

Several standard school experiments begin with a quick rub of sand paper. Magnesium ribbon is cleaned before it is burnt in air, so the dull surface coating is removed and the fresh metal lights readily. Iron nails are rubbed bright before being placed in copper sulphate solution for the displacement reaction, so the copper deposit is easy to see. Zinc and copper plates for a Daniell cell, and the bared ends of connecting wires, are cleaned so that the circuit makes good contact and the reading stays steady.

The sheets also help with routine lab equipment maintenance, such as removing surface rust from iron stands, clamps and tripods or cleaning corroded terminals on older apparatus. Cut a sheet into small strips so that every bench gets a piece, sand in one direction, and wipe away the loose dust with a dry cloth before the cleaned metal is used. Keep unused sheets flat in a dry drawer.

Frequently Asked Questions

What grit are the sheets?
The grit is not stated. Tell us what you need to clean through our contact page and we will confirm a suitable sheet.

What are they best used for?
Removing rust and corrosion and sanding metal. In the lab that means cleaning magnesium ribbon, iron nails, electrodes and wire ends before experiments.

Why must magnesium ribbon be cleaned before burning?
Stored ribbon develops a dull surface layer that makes it slow to ignite. Rubbing it exposes fresh metal, which lights and burns more readily.

Can a sheet be cut into smaller pieces?
Yes. Cutting it into strips lets one sheet serve several benches.

What sheet size and pack quantity are supplied?
These are not listed. Let us know how many sheets you need and we will quote accordingly.

Can you supply them in bulk or for export?
Yes. We supply schools, colleges and dealers in India and international markets.
