Electrode Plate
Product Code : LSK-CL-10055
Electrode Plate (SKU LSK-CL-10055) is a flat 100 x 45 mm electrode with a socket terminal, offered in aluminium, carbon, copper, lead or zinc. Plates like these form the electrodes of simple cells, electrolysis set-ups and electroplating demonstrations, and changing the plate material lets students compare how different elements behave. They are used in school and college electrochemistry practicals. Science Lab Supplies provides the plates from Ambala, India to schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
Each electrode is a 100 x 45 mm plate fitted with a socket terminal that takes a standard connecting lead. Five materials are listed – aluminium, carbon, copper, lead and zinc – so the same plate size can be used across a whole series of cell and electrolysis experiments.

Applications and Experiments for the Electrode Plates
Electrode plates give a large, flat surface for current to pass into a solution. Pairs of different metals form voltaic cells, carbon plates act as inert electrodes in electrolysis, and copper plates are used for electroplating and for measuring the mass deposited against the charge passed.
- Class 10 science: electrolysis of water and electroplating with copper.
- Class 12 chemistry: electrochemical series and simple cells from different metal pairs.
- B.Sc. physical chemistry: Faraday's laws using copper plates.
- Physics labs: lead plates in a simple lead-acid accumulator demonstration.
Lead is toxic: handle lead plates with gloves, wash hands afterwards and keep them away from younger students. Acid electrolytes are corrosive and need supervision.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Electrode Plate is supplied as a single 100 x 45 mm plate with socket terminal in the material you choose; state aluminium, carbon, copper, lead or zinc when ordering. Leads, cells and electrolytes are separate items.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Plates can be quoted singly, as a mixed set of materials or in class quantities. Your quotation lists packing, delivery time and price for each material and quantity, and rods, connectors or other school chemistry lab equipment in India can be added.
Science Lab Supplies, which holds an Importer-Exporter Code, can ship to buyers in Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Uganda and the UAE. Reach us on the contact page, collect your list in the enquiry cart, or consult the lab tender page for tender orders.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which materials are available?
The electrode plate is listed in aluminium, carbon, copper, lead and zinc, all in the same 100 x 45 mm size with a socket terminal.
How is a plate different from an electrode rod?
The plate is 100 x 45 mm with a socket terminal and offers a larger flat surface, which suits electroplating and deposit-weighing experiments; the rod version is 100 x 10 mm.
Who supplies the Electrode Plate?
Science Lab Supplies supplies the plates from Ambala, India, in single materials or mixed sets for electrochemistry benches.
Can I order a mixed set of materials?
Yes. List the number of plates required in each material and the quotation will itemise them.
