Cubes
Product Code : SCL-CL-11858
Cubes (SKU SCL-CL-11858) are equal-volume material cubes with a 1 cm edge, made from rubber, wood, opaque plastic, iron and transparent plastic. Because every cube has the same volume, students can weigh and measure them to compare density, mass, weight and other physical properties of materials. Science Lab Supplies, a school laboratory equipment supplier in India, can include the cubes in a quotation from Ambala for schools, colleges, teacher-training institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
Below, each property of the 1 cm material cubes has its own table row. In short, every cube measures 1 cm along each edge, giving a volume of 1 cubic centimetre, and the five materials, rubber, wood, opaque plastic, iron and transparent plastic, give a spread of densities for students to compare.

Applications and Experiments for the Material Cubes
The cubes serve classroom experiments on density, specific gravity, specific heat and material comparison. With a volume of exactly 1 cm³, the mass of each cube in grams equals its density in g/cm³, so students move quickly from weighing to comparing substances.
- Middle-school science: ranking materials by mass when volume is held constant.
- Class 9 science: density and relative density, predicting which materials float or sink in water held in one of the Beakers, and comparing the result with a Nicholson Hydrometer reading.
- Measurement practice: checking the edge length with a caliper and calculating volume.
- B.Ed. and teacher-training science methods: demonstrating the idea of density with simple materials.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Cubes are supplied as 1 cm cubes in rubber, wood, opaque plastic, iron and transparent plastic, with the number of sets stated on the quotation. A balance, caliper or measuring cylinder can be added to the same quotation if your density practical needs one.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Quotations are available for one set of cubes or for enough sets for every group in a class. Each one lists packing, delivery time and price for the quantity requested, and a balance, caliper or other chemistry lab equipment in India from the same range can be quoted together.
Science Lab Supplies is a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code and is able to ship to buyers in Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia, Tanzania and Uganda. The number of cube sets you need can go straight into the contact page form or the enquiry cart; public-sector buyers will find bid details on the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which materials are the cubes made from?
The cubes are made from rubber, wood, opaque plastic, iron and transparent plastic, which gives students a clear contrast between low-density and high-density materials of identical size.
How do students find density with these cubes?
Each cube has a 1 cm edge and a volume of 1 cm³. Weigh it on a balance: the mass in grams is numerically equal to the density in g/cm³.
Who supplies the Cubes?
They are quoted and dispatched by Science Lab Supplies from Ambala, India, for schools and colleges directly as well as for tender contractors and distributors buying for several institutions.
Can the cubes be used for float and sink activities?
Yes. Dropping cubes of equal volume into water lets students link floating and sinking to density rather than to size, and then confirm the link by weighing each cube.
Related Density and Measurement Apparatus
Density work needs a way to weigh, a way to measure and a way to check volume, plus further specimens to compare. These seven items from the Chemistry Lab and Properties of Matter ranges sit naturally alongside the cubes on a density bench and can be listed on one quotation.
