Product Code : SCL-LC-12274
Aluminium Metal (SKU SCL-LC-12274) is elemental aluminium, Al, supplied as a laboratory reagent for supervised experiments on metal reactivity, displacement reactions, oxidation and the physical properties of metals. It suits metals and reactivity-series practicals in schools, colleges and science departments. Schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors receive quotations for it directly from Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India.
Specifications
Symbol, possible forms and powder precautions for the aluminium are each given a row in the table. In short, it is elemental aluminium, Al (CAS 7429-90-5, about 27.0 g/mol), offered as foil, strip, granules, turnings, pieces or powder; the form, purity and pack size are confirmed on the quotation and label, and fine powder needs stricter controls.

Applications and Experiments for Aluminium Metal
Aluminium can be used to demonstrate oxidation, aluminium oxide formation and corrosion resistance, and to place a metal in the reactivity series through displacement experiments. It also suits observations of density, malleability, conductivity and metallic bonding under supervised practical procedures.
- Class 8–10 science: metals and non-metals, the reactivity series and displacement reactions, with salt solutions held in a Chemical Glasses (Beaker) 50ml or a test tube gripped by a Test Tube Clamp.
- Class 10 science: oxidation, aluminium oxide formation and corrosion resistance.
- Class 11 chemistry: the p-block elements, with aluminium as a Group 13 metal.
- Physical-property demonstrations of density, malleability and electrical conductivity.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each unit is one pack of aluminium metal in the physical form and quantity set out on your quotation, with a batch label, the Safety Data Sheet and transport documents. Tell us which form your practical needs. Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Quotations are available for one pack or for a quantity covering many practical classes, and each states the packing, delivery time and price for what you order. Other metals, salts and school chemistry lab equipment in India for the same experiments can be quoted together.
As a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Egypt, Iraq, Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana and Ethiopia. Prices can be requested from the contact page, several items can be grouped in the enquiry cart, and tender quoting is described on the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What form of aluminium metal is supplied?
It can be foil, strip, granules, turnings, pieces or powder. The form is agreed on the quotation, so mention the experiment or form you need when you enquire.
Is aluminium metal hazardous?
It can be. Fine powder or dust forms may present fire and dust-exposure risks, so avoid airborne powder, ignition sources and open flames, keep the metal away from strong oxidisers and acids, wear Safety Glasses and gloves, and follow the Safety Data Sheet for every form.
Who supplies the Aluminium Metal?
Aluminium metal for teaching labs comes from Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, a laboratory chemicals supplier in India. Each quotation for a school, college or distributor confirms the physical form, purity and pack size.
Can school students use aluminium metal?
Yes, in supervised school and college practicals run under teacher or technician guidance, the institution's safety rules and the current Safety Data Sheet, with extra care for powder forms.
