Needle Holder
Product Code : LSK-DAS-10911
Needle Holder (SKU LSK-DAS-10911) is a holder with a metal chuck that grips a needle at its working end, so the needle can be guided precisely while teasing apart tissue, mounting specimens or probing small structures. It suits school biology practicals, B.Sc. zoology and botany labs and other dissection work. Two versions are offered: an all-metal type and one with a phenolic resin handle. Orders are handled by Science Lab Supplies from its base in Ambala, India, for schools, colleges, distributors and tender buyers.
Specifications
Each specification of this chuck-type needle holder appears in the table below. In short, a metal chuck holds the needle at the working end, and the holder comes either as an all-metal version or with a phenolic resin handle, so a lab can choose the grip that suits its dissection benches.

Applications and Experiments for the Needle Holder
The needle holder turns a loose needle into a controllable dissecting tool. Clamped in the chuck, the needle can separate tissue layers, lift fine membranes, tease out plant material for a temporary mount and point to structures during a demonstration dissection in school or college biology.
- Class 9–12 biology (CBSE/NCERT): teasing out onion peel or leaf epidermis and placing it on Glass Microscope Slides for staining.
- Lowering a cover slip at an angle with the needle tip to keep air bubbles out of the mount, using Glass Cover Slips.
- B.Sc. zoology and botany practicals: separating tissues and exposing small organs during guided dissections.
- Checking teased material up close with a Single Lens Eye Loupe before it is mounted.
Tighten the chuck before each practical so the needle cannot slip, and store the holder with the point away from the bench edge between lessons.
Standard Scope of Supply
The needle holder is supplied as a single unit in the version you select, either the metal type or the version with a phenolic resin handle. Needles, seekers and other dissecting instruments for the same bench can be added to the quotation, so one order can cover a complete student workstation.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Quotations can cover one needle holder for a demonstration bench or a full class quantity for every dissecting station. As a biology lab equipment supplier in India, Science Lab Supplies sets out packing, delivery time and price for that quantity on each quote, and slides or dissecting sets can be priced on the same document.
With an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies is able to ship to buyers in Iraq, Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia and Tanzania. To price a batch of needle holders, send your list through the contact page, collect the items in the enquiry cart, or turn to the lab tender page for a formal bid.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the metal chuck do?
The chuck at the working end clamps a needle in place, so the needle stays steady while you tease tissue apart, lift a membrane or position a specimen on a slide during a practical.
What is the difference between the two versions?
Both versions hold the needle in the same metal chuck. One is the all-metal type, while the other has a phenolic resin handle; choose the grip that suits your students and state it on the enquiry.
Who supplies the Needle Holder?
Science Lab Supplies, a dissecting-instrument supplier based in Ambala, India, quotes this needle holder for schools, colleges, distributors and tender contractors, either alone or as part of a wider order of dissecting instruments.
Can it be included in a school or college tender?
Yes. Send the quantity, the version required and your delivery location, and Science Lab Supplies will return an item-wise quotation that can sit within a larger biology tender alongside dissecting sets and glassware.
