A lid with a sturdy lock keeps the contents secure, and the flap cover carries an index card holder so users can note what each box contains. Pathology labs, blood-film archives, malaria microscopy units and biology departments use boxes like this to keep stained or prepared slides clean, organised and ready for review. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, a biology lab equipment manufacturer in India.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Type | Storage box for microscope slides |
| Capacity | 100 microscope slides |
| Slide size | Standard 7.6 x 2.6 cm |
| Box material | Resistant thermoplastic ABS |
| Base | Cork |
| Closure | Lid with sturdy lock |
| Labelling | Index card holder on the flap cover |
Clinical laboratories often need to keep slides after reporting, for example blood films for review by a senior reader or malaria smears retained for quality-control rechecking. Storing them in a closed box protects the stained surface from dust, light and scratches, while the index card lets staff list slide numbers, dates or patient codes on the outside so a particular slide can be found without opening every box. The lock keeps the lid shut when boxes are carried between rooms or sent to a reference laboratory.
Make sure slides are completely dry and, where applicable, coverslipped before they go in, and keep the box in a cool, dry cupboard. College departments that build up permanent slides for biology teaching in India use the same boxes to keep class sets together from one year to the next. The ABS body can be wiped clean with a mild detergent; avoid strong solvents such as acetone, which can mark this plastic.

Compass, Plastic, for Blackboard, 45cm (Product Code: SLE/CS/015) is a large demonstration compass that holds a stick of chalk and draws circles, arcs and constructions on the chalkboard, so pupils can follow each step before trying it with their own geometry sets. A suction foot grips the board at the centre point, and a metal butterfly screw lets the teacher set the radius and tighten the joint by hand. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, a school lab equipment manufacturer in India that produces a matching set of blackboard geometry instruments.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Type | Compass for blackboard |
| Length (as stated in the product specification) | 40cm — please confirm the current size when ordering |
| Body material | Hard white plastic |
| Adjustment | Sturdy metal butterfly screw for adjusting tightness by hand |
| Chalk holder | Convenient mechanism, adjustable for round and square chalk |
| Centre fitting | Interchangeable suction foot and compass point in soft plastic |
| Intended use | Classroom teaching aid |
| Estimated weight | 0.227kg |
| Estimated volume | 0.82cdm |
Teachers use the compass to draw circles of a given radius, bisect lines and angles, construct triangles from three sides, and show how the radius, diameter and circumference of a circle relate. Press the suction foot onto a clean, smooth part of the board, set the opening against a board ruler, then lock the joint with the butterfly screw so the radius does not drift mid-stroke. On surfaces where suction will not hold, swap in the soft plastic compass point instead.
The holder accepts both round and square chalk, so the compass works with whichever sticks the school buys. Loosen the screw slightly after class to relieve pressure on the joint, and keep the suction foot free of chalk dust so it keeps its grip. When equipping a maths room as part of a new lab setup in an Indian school, it is usually ordered with the blackboard ruler, protractor and set squares so teachers have a complete construction kit.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited manufactures this compass under its ScienceLab trading name in Ambala, Haryana, and ships board instruments and other teaching aids to schools in India and international markets. Visit our company profile to learn more.

Clock, Teaching, Wood (Product Code: SLE/CS/016) is a demonstration clock face on a desk-top stand that teachers set by hand to show children how to read hours and minutes. Clear, easy-to-see numerals and distinct large and small hands let a whole group follow as the time is changed, and the tough build copes with being passed from table to table. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, and is a familiar piece in the preschool kit India's nursery and lower-primary classrooms use for early numeracy.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Type | Teaching clock with desk-top stand |
| Material | Wood (the specification for this item allows wood or plastic construction; confirm with us when ordering) |
| Clock diameter | Minimum 220-240mm |
| Construction | Tough construction for classroom handling |
| Dial | Easy-to-see numerals |
| Hands | Large and small hands |
| Estimated weight | 0.4kg |

Start with o'clock times by moving only the small hour hand, then introduce the large minute hand for half past, quarter past and quarter to. Children can take turns setting a time the teacher calls out, or reading the time the teacher sets and writing it on their slates. The desk-top stand keeps the clock upright on the teacher's table or a group table, so it can be left on display while pupils work through a timetable or daily-routine activity.
It pairs well with the individual student clocks in a junior lab kit for primary school maths, letting every child copy the teacher's setting on their own dial. Move the hands gently in one direction rather than forcing them backwards, wipe the face with a dry cloth, and store the clock upright on its stand to protect the hands.

Rack Staining Slides Horizontal (Product Code: SLE/CL/52) is a self-supporting stainless steel rack that holds 12 microscopy slides side by side in a horizontal position for staining. Placed across a sink or a container, it lets stain be flooded onto each slide while run-off drains away underneath, and its sturdy base keeps the rack steady during the process. Haematology, microbiology and parasitology benches, as well as teaching labs, use racks like this for routine smear staining. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, as part of its range of microbiology lab equipment in India.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Type | Self-supporting rack for staining microscopy slides |
| Material | Stainless steel |
| Capacity | 12 microscopy slides |
| Slide position | Horizontal, side by side |
| Base | Sturdy base for optimal stability |
| Placement | Across a sink or container |
After smears have been prepared and fixed, lay them smear-side up across the rack and check that the rack sits level so stain does not run off one end. Each reagent is then dropped or flooded onto the slides in turn, left for the time given in the method, and rinsed away with a gentle stream of water, all without lifting the slides until staining is complete. This flat, flood-style approach suits Gram staining as well as Romanowsky-type blood stains such as Leishman or Giemsa.
Holding a full row of slides together keeps timing consistent across a batch, which is helpful when a Gram stain kit is being used by a class in a school or college lab in India. After each session, rinse the rack with water to remove stain deposits and let it dry before storage; stainless steel keeps its finish well when it is cleaned and dried regularly.
This stainless steel staining rack is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited under the ScienceLab name in Ambala, Haryana, where the company produces bench apparatus for clinical and teaching laboratories. Company information is available on our profile page.
Items that complete the slide staining routine:
The Clinical Laboratory category has more microscopy and staining accessories.
How many slides does the rack hold?
Twelve microscopy slides, laid horizontally side by side.
What is it made of?
Stainless steel.
Does it need a special staining tray?
No. The rack is self-supporting and is designed to be placed across a sink or any suitable container that catches the run-off.
Will it fit across my sink or tray?
The rack’s overall dimensions are not stated in our listing. Please contact us with the width of your sink or container so we can confirm.
Which staining methods can be used?
Any method where stain is flooded onto slides lying flat, such as Gram or Leishman staining. Follow the timing and rinsing steps of your chosen stain.
How should the rack be cleaned?
Rinse off stain residues with water after each use and dry it before storage. Avoid leaving it wet with stain overnight.
Do you supply racks to colleges and export customers?
Yes. Tell us the quantity and delivery location, and we will quote for India or international markets.

Slate, Plastic, French Style, A4 (Product Code: SLE/CS/017) is an individual A4 writing board for students, printed with 1cm squares on one face and French-style “double-ligne” handwriting rulings on the other. The ruling guides letter height and slant, which makes it well suited to schools teaching cursive handwriting in the French tradition, while the squared side serves for numbers and simple drawings. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, a school laboratory equipment supplier in India that also produces classroom writing materials, and is packed in boxes of 20 slates.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Size | A4 (210 x 297mm), thickness 2mm, rounded corners |
| Material | High impact polystyrene (HIPS) sheeting, colour white, matt finish on both sides |
| Printing | Silk screen printed in cyan blue on both sides |
| Front side | 1cm squares |
| Reverse side | French-style “double-ligne” rulings: 1 double line, height 5mm, followed by 2 sets of lines, height 8mm each, with additional right-slanting lines at 4cm intervals |
| Border | 8mm cyan blue border on all sides, front and reverse |
| Writing tools | HB pencil and eraser (natural or synthetic rubber) |
| Cleaning | Washable in water |
| Rigidity | Rigid enough for a student to write with the slate resting on the knee |
| Packing | Box of 20 slates |
| Estimated weight | 2.600kg |
| Estimated volume | 2.580cdm |
On the ruled side, pupils form small letters within the 5mm double line and let ascenders and descenders reach into the 8mm lines above and below, using the right-slanting guides to keep a consistent cursive slope. Teachers can then flip the slate to the 1cm grid for number formation, counting squares, simple shapes and early area work. Because it is written on with an HB pencil and cleaned with an eraser, the same slate can be reused for practice lesson after lesson, saving exercise-book pages for final work.
The slate is stiff enough to rest on a child's knee, which helps in classrooms where desks are shared or lessons take place outdoors. Wash the slates in water when pencil marks build up and dry them flat before stacking them back in the box. Education departments preparing a classroom or lab equipment tender in India often list slates by box so each class of up to 20 pupils receives one set.
These slates are manufactured by ScienceLab, which is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, a company operating from Ambala, Haryana. It is registered as an MSME with manufacturing as its major activity (Udyam UDYAM-HR-01-0003714), and holds Importer-Exporter Code AAECJ8618A from the DGFT for shipments to international markets.

Slide Drying Rack (Product Code: SLE/CL/53) is a self-supporting stand that holds freshly stained microscopy slides upright while they air-dry, so smears are not smudged, stuck together or left lying in pooled stain before examination. Pathology benches, hospital laboratories and college microbiology practicals use it whenever smears are stained in batches, and it is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, as a practical part of any microbiology lab setup in India.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Material | Heat-stable plastic (plexiglass) |
| Design | Self-supporting rack; sturdy base for optimal stability |
| Capacity | 12 microscopy slides held in a vertical position |
| Positions | 12 numbered positions |
| Drying surface | Slides stand vertically on replaceable blotting paper |
| Intended for | Drying coloured (stained) microscopy slides |
Once a Gram, Giemsa or Ziehl-Neelsen stain has been rinsed off, each slide is stood on its edge in one of the numbered slots with all smears facing the same way. Rinse water and residual stain run down onto the blotting paper at the base instead of drying as a film over the cells, and the upright position lets air reach both faces of the glass. Because every slot carries a number, the technician can note which patient or student sample sits in which position and then read the slides in that order under the microscope.
Change the blotting paper once it is coloured or saturated so that dye cannot wick back onto the slide edges, and wipe the plexiglass with a damp cloth and a mild detergent after each session. The rack is equally at home in a teaching lab and on a small diagnostic bench, making it useful microbiology lab equipment in India wherever slides are stained several at a time.
This rack comes from Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the Ambala, Haryana company that trades under the ScienceLab name and produces clinical, biology and general laboratory items for schools, colleges and diagnostic laboratories. You can learn more about the business on our company profile page.
These items are used alongside the slide drying rack in the same staining and microscopy workflow:
Browse the complete Clinical Laboratory range for more diagnostic and teaching lab items.
How many slides does the rack hold at one time?
It holds 12 microscopy slides, each in its own numbered position. For larger staining runs several racks can be used side by side; ask us for a multi-unit quotation.
What is the rack made of?
Heat-stable plastic (plexiglass) with a sturdy base. Clean it with a mild detergent solution and a soft cloth; abrasive pads can scratch the surface.
Why does it use blotting paper?
The slides stand vertically on a replaceable blotting paper strip that soaks up run-off from the stained slides. Please ask us whether replacement sheets can be included with your order.
Can unstained or freshly washed slides be dried in it?
Yes, as long as they fit the slots, although the rack is described specifically for drying coloured (stained) slides. Heat-fixing over a flame should be done before the slide goes into the rack, never in it.
Is a warranty or test report provided?
Warranty terms and any documents you need are confirmed at quotation stage. Please raise them through our contact page.
What details should a college or hospital include when requesting a quote?
Quote the product code SLE/CL/53, the quantity, the delivery address and whether tender paperwork is required. We supply institutions across India and international markets.

Slate, Plastic, A4 (Product Code: SLE/CS/018) is a reusable A4 writing board for each pupil, with a 1cm square grid on the front and evenly spaced 8mm lines on the back, both screen printed in cyan blue on white plastic. The plain line spacing suits handwriting practice in any script, and the grid side handles numbers, tables and simple sketches, so one slate covers both language and maths work. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, whose educational laboratory equipment in India's schools is complemented by everyday classroom items such as this, packed in boxes of 20.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Size | A4 (210 x 297mm) |
| Material | White high impact polystyrene (HIPS) sheeting, matt finish on both sides |
| Thickness | 2mm, with rounded corners |
| Printing | Silk screen printed in cyan blue on both sides |
| Front side | 1cm squares |
| Reverse side | 8mm lines |
| Border | 8mm cyan blue border on all sides |
| Writing tools | HB pencil and eraser (natural or synthetic rubber) |
| Care | Washable in water |
| Rigidity | Sufficiently rigid to write on with the slate resting on the knee |
| Packing | Box of 20 |
| Estimated weight | 2.8kg |
Teachers use a class set for quick-response activities: pupils write a spelling, a sum or a one-word answer, hold the slate up, and the teacher checks the whole room at a glance. The 8mm lines give even spacing for copying sentences, while the 1cm squares help children line up digits in columns for addition and subtraction or draw shapes by counting squares. Pencil work rubs out cleanly with an eraser, so the slate can be used again immediately.
Even in classrooms adding e-learning science kits, India's primary teachers still value a slate for fast, paper-free practice that needs no power or screens. Wash the slates in water when graphite builds up, let them dry before stacking, and keep a set for each class section so they are not shared between rooms.
ScienceLab slates are made by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited in Ambala, Haryana; the company uses the ScienceLab name for the classroom and laboratory products it supplies to schools and education programmes in India and international markets. Find out more on our company profile.
