Spotting Tiles, Plastic Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Spotting Tiles, Plastic (Product Code: SLE/CH/227) are white high-density polyethylene tiles, each moulded with 12 cavities that hold approximately 1.5ml with a top diameter of 21mm. The white surface makes small colour changes easy to see, so a few drops of reagent in each well are enough for spot tests, indicator comparisons and drop-scale reactions. Using drops instead of test tubes cuts chemical use and washing-up, which is why spotting tiles appear in almost every chemistry teaching kit for schools and colleges. They come in packs of 10 and are manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

Typical Use

A class can place a drop of each test solution in a row of wells and add universal indicator to all of them, producing a colour series from acidic to alkaline on one tile. The same layout suits testing for starch with iodine, comparing the reaction of metals with dilute acid on a drop scale, or running confirmatory ion tests in a salt analysis sequence. With 12 wells per tile, a group can run a full set of samples alongside a control, and a pack of 10 tiles covers ten groups at once in a school chemistry lab.

Label the rows and columns on a sheet placed under the tile so results can be recorded, and add reagents with a dropper or microchemistry pipet to keep volumes small. Rinse the tile with water straight after use and clean the wells with a soft brush. Keep the tiles away from flames and hot plates, and do not place hot glassware on them.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many wells does each tile have?
Each tile has 12 cavities.

What volume does a well hold?
About 1.5ml per well, with a top diameter of 21mm.

How many tiles are in a pack?
There are 10 tiles in a pack.

Why white plastic rather than porcelain?
The white polyethylene gives the same clear background for colour changes, and plastic tiles are light and less likely to chip if dropped on a student bench.

Can the tiles be heated?
No. They are polyethylene, so keep them away from flames and hot plates and use them for room-temperature spot tests.

Which chemicals can be used in the wells?
They are intended for small quantities of typical school and college reagents. If you plan to use concentrated acids or organic solvents, please check with us through the contact page first.

Do you supply tiles in bulk for institutions or export?
Yes. Quote the product code SLE/CH/227 and the number of packs; we supply India and international markets.
