Plastic Cylindrical Vessel
Product Code : SCL-PL-12406
Plastic Cylindrical Vessel (SKU SCL-PL-12406) is a 500 ml transparent plastic container of cylindrical form, graduated on the side and chemical resistant. It serves as a general liquid vessel for science and physics practicals in schools and colleges, from floating-and-sinking tests to holding and measuring solutions. Manufacturing takes place at the Science Lab Supplies factory, Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, India, and the vessel goes directly from there to schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
This vessel holds 500 ml in a cylindrical body of transparent plastic, so contents and liquid levels stay visible from any side. Graduations on the body allow volume readings, and the plastic is chemical resistant. It is a straightforward vessel for holding and measuring liquids at the bench.

Applications and Experiments for the Plastic Cylindrical Vessel
The vessel is a general container for liquid-based practicals. Filled with water it can host floating-and-sinking and buoyancy tests, and its graduations help when measuring a liquid volume for density work. Chemistry and biology benches can also use it for holding solutions and rinse water during experiments.
- Class 6–9 science: floating and sinking, and the idea of buoyancy.
- Class 9 science: density and relative density of liquids.
- General laboratory use: holding, mixing and measuring liquids.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each unit is one transparent 500 ml cylindrical plastic vessel with graduations, supplied as described above. Hydrometers, measuring cylinders or objects for floating tests are separate items and can be listed on the same quotation when a full practical set is needed.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Whether you need one vessel or a class set, a quotation from Science Lab Supplies will state packing, delivery time and price for that exact quantity. Related plasticware and other school physics lab equipment in India can be quoted alongside, so a science room can be stocked in one step.
Holding an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Egypt, Iraq, Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana and Ethiopia. Put the vessel in the enquiry cart alongside other items or write via the contact page; tender purchasers can check the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What capacity and material is the vessel?
It holds 500 ml and is made of transparent, chemical-resistant plastic with a cylindrical, graduated body, so the liquid inside stays visible and its volume can be read.
Is it the same as the Plastic Vessel with Side Arm?
No. Both are 500 ml, transparent, graduated and chemical resistant, but the side-arm vessel has a side tube as a liquid outlet for displacement work. This cylindrical vessel is the plain container option.
Is Science Lab Supplies the manufacturer or a trader?
Science Lab Supplies manufactures the vessel and is not a trader. Production is at its factory in Saha, Ambala, India, and buyers get their quotations from the manufacturer itself.
Can the vessel be quoted with measuring cylinders?
Yes. The 100 ml Plastic Graduated Cylinder and other measuring vessels can go on the same quotation, so the laboratory receives one price sheet for all its plasticware.
Related Liquid Vessels and Fluid Apparatus
The cylindrical vessel is one part of a liquids bench. The items below cover the other roles: a side-arm vessel for displacement, a graduated cylinder for measuring, and two fluid apparatus for buoyancy and connected-vessel experiments. All four can be quoted together with this vessel.
- Plastic Vessel with Side Arm — 500 ml vessel with a side tube outlet.
- Plastic Graduated Cylinder — 100 ml measuring cylinder.
- Communication Vessel Apparatus — connected vessels for liquid-level studies.
