Product Code : SCL-CL-11552
Spoon for Substances (SKU SCL-CL-11552) is a 120 mm polished steel spoon with a shoulder, used to take small quantities of powders, crystals and granules out of reagent bottles and transfer them to a weighing pan, test tube or beaker. Often called a chemical spoon or spatula spoon, it is found at every student station in school and college chemistry labs. Science Lab Supplies, located in Ambala, India, supplies it to schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The spoon is made of steel with a polished, silver finish and measures 120 mm overall. A shoulder between bowl and handle adds stiffness and helps the user judge a level spoonful. The metal is chemical resistant and rust resistant, so it can be wiped and reused across many practical sessions.

Applications and Experiments for the Spoon for Substances
A chemical spoon is used every time a solid reagent is measured out: adding a pinch of salt to a test tube, transferring crystals to a watch glass, or loading a balance pan. Using a clean, dedicated spoon also stops reagents being contaminated by fingers or other chemicals.
- Class 6–10 science: adding solids to water to study solubility, mixtures and reactions.
- Class 11–12 chemistry: taking the salt sample for qualitative analysis and weighing solids for preparations.
- B.Sc. practicals: transferring reagents during gravimetric and preparative work.
- Pharmacy and testing labs: handling small amounts of powders at the balance.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long is the spoon?
The total length is 120 mm, a convenient size for reaching into standard reagent bottles and for use at a balance.
Will it rust after contact with chemicals?
The steel is described as chemical resistant and rust resistant. Clean and dry it after each use, and use separate spoons for different reagents.
Who supplies the Spoon for Substances?
Science Lab Supplies supplies it from Ambala, India, and quotes schools, colleges, laboratories, dealers and tender contractors directly.
What does the shoulder do?
The shoulder stiffens the joint between bowl and handle, so the spoon does not bend when scooping firm or caked powders.
