Forceps
Product Code : SCL-CL-11922
Forceps (SKU SCL-CL-11922), also called laboratory tweezers, are stainless-steel gripping tools made for picking up, sorting and holding tiny or fragile items. Offered in 14 cm and 20 cm lengths, they suit biology dissections, chemistry sample handling and slide preparation at school and college level. Science Lab Supplies can deliver them from Ambala, India, once a quotation is agreed with a school, college, training institute, tender contractor or distributor.
Specifications
Below, the table lists each specification of the 14 cm and 20 cm steel forceps. In short, high-quality stainless steel keeps the tips converging precisely over extended use, fluted, ridged handles give steady finger placement, and serrated tips hold tiny, high-precision or fragile items securely during sorting and gripping.

Applications and Experiments for the Forceps
Forceps let students handle items that are too small, delicate or unsafe to touch with fingers. With them, students can lift specimens during dissection, place filter or litmus paper, pick crystals out of a dish and move small parts or weights without contaminating them.
- Class 9–12 biology: holding tissues and organs during dissection of flowers or preserved specimens.
- Class 11–12 chemistry: picking up Blue Litmus Paper, small metal pieces or crystals grown in a Porcelain Dish.
- B.Sc. zoology and botany practicals: handling small specimens for mounting on Glass Microscope Slides.
- Physics and electronics benches: placing small weights or components.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Forceps are supplied as a single stainless-steel pair in the length you choose, 14 cm or 20 cm, as described above. Pack quantities are listed on the quotation, and scalpels, needles or dissecting trays can be added for a complete specimen-handling kit.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Forceps can be quoted per student or per dissection group, in either length or a mix of both. The quotation sets out packing, delivery time and price for the number you request, and scalpels, needles or other items from a chemistry lab instruments supplier can be added.
Because it holds an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Egypt, Iraq, Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana and Ethiopia. Specify the mix of 14 cm and 20 cm pairs on the contact page, or add each length to the enquiry cart; colleges running a formal purchase can refer to the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What lengths are available?
The forceps come in two lengths, 14 cm and 20 cm. The shorter pair suits fine work at the bench, while the longer one reaches into deeper dishes and containers.
What are the forceps made of?
They are high-quality stainless steel, which keeps the tips meeting precisely over extended use. Fluted handles give a steady grip, and serrated tips hold small or fragile items securely.
Who supplies these Forceps?
The forceps are available from Science Lab Supplies, which operates from Ambala, India, and can list them alongside scalpels, needles and other school chemistry lab equipment in India on a single quotation.
Can the forceps be used for dissection practicals?
Yes. The serrated tips can hold and move tissues and small specimens in school and college biology dissections, and the 20 cm pair keeps the hand clear of the dissecting tray.
