Density Cube Set
Product Code : LSK-CL-10275
Density Cube Set (SKU LSK-CL-10275) is a set of nine cubes, each 25 mm along every side, made from nine different materials, from brass and copper to pine and acrylic. Because every cube has the same volume, students can compare materials simply by weighing them and then calculate density. It suits middle-school science and Class 9–11 lessons on mass, volume and density. Science Lab Supplies offers the set from Ambala, India, to schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The set contains nine 25 mm cubes covering four metals, two woods and three plastics: brass, iron, copper, aluminium, hardwood (beech), softwood (pine), nylon, PVC and acrylic. Each cube therefore has a volume of 15.625 cm³. The cubes are supplied in a wooden storage box.

Applications and Experiments for the Density Cube Set
The set is used for density investigations and for comparing materials. With equal volumes, the heavier cube is always the denser material, so students can rank all nine by mass before calculating density as mass divided by volume and checking which cubes should float in water.
- Middle-school science (Class 6–8): comparing materials and their properties.
- NCERT Class 9 science: density, relative density and why some objects float.
- Class 11 physics: measuring cube dimensions with vernier calipers and calculating density with error estimates.
- Identifying an unknown material by comparing its measured density with the known cubes.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each set includes nine 25 mm cubes, one each of brass, iron, copper, aluminium, beech, pine, nylon, PVC and acrylic, packed in a wooden box. A balance, calipers and a water container for flotation tests are not part of the set.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Sets can be quoted individually or in multiples so every group works with its own box. The quotation covers packing, delivery time and price for your quantity; if you also need a digital weighing balance in India for the same class, it can be added to the same quotation.
Science Lab Supplies is registered as an exporter and holds an Importer-Exporter Code, so it can ship to buyers in Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Uganda and the UAE. For a quotation, write via the contact page, use the enquiry cart, or send tender documents through the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which materials are in the Density Cube Set?
Nine materials: brass, iron, copper, aluminium, hardwood (beech), softwood (pine), nylon, PVC and acrylic, one 25 mm cube of each.
Why are all the cubes the same size?
Equal volumes mean any difference in mass comes from the material alone, so students can compare densities directly on a balance before doing the calculation.
Who supplies the Density Cube Set?
Science Lab Supplies supplies this set from Ambala, India, to schools, colleges, contractors and distributors, and can quote balances and calipers with it.
Which cubes float in water?
The two wooden cubes are normally less dense than water and float; the metal cubes sink. Testing the plastics is a useful extension for students.
