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, ships the cubes from Ambala to schools, colleges, teacher-training institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
Each cube measures 1 cm along every edge, so its volume is 1 cubic centimetre. The five materials, rubber, wood, opaque plastic, iron and transparent plastic, span light and heavy, soft and hard, and clear and opaque, giving a wide spread of densities to compare.

Applications and Experiments for the Material Cubes
The cubes are used for 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, and predicting which materials float or sink in water.
- 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 described above: 1 cm cubes in rubber, wood, opaque plastic, iron and transparent plastic. The number of sets required is stated on the quotation, and balances, calipers or measuring cylinders are separate items.
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. You may write in through the contact page, save a shortlist in the enquiry cart, or consult the lab tender page for public procurement.
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.
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?
Science Lab Supplies supplies them from Ambala, India, to schools and colleges directly and through tender contractors and distributors.
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.
Related Density and Measurement Equipment
Density work needs a way to weigh, a way to measure, and a way to check volume. These four items sit naturally alongside the cubes on a density bench and can be ordered on one quotation.
- Density Cube Set — a further equal-volume cube set for density comparison.
- Laboratory Scales Electronic — digital balance for weighing each cube.
- Mechanical Caliper — for measuring the edge length.
- Volume Measuring Cylinder — for checking volume by displacement.
