Tangram
Product Code : SCL-ML-11970
Tangram (SKU SCL-ML-11970), a tangram kit, gives a class four plastic seven-piece dissection puzzles, 28 pieces in total, and each set assembles into a 4-inch square. It can be used to explore shapes, area, angles and equivalent figures, while younger pupils rebuild outlines to train spatial reasoning. Science Lab Supplies manufactures the kit at its Saha, Ambala factory, Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, India, and delivers it to schools, colleges, contractors and distributors on direct quotation.
Specifications
Twenty-eight plastic pieces in four seven-piece sets make up this tangram kit, and the table lists every fact on a separate row. In short, each set assembles into a 4-inch square of about 10 cm, up to four learners or teams can work at once, and colours may vary between sets.

Applications and Experiments for the Tangram
Beyond puzzle play, the tangram works as a geometry toolkit: its pieces show how one square divides into triangles, a square and a parallelogram, how figures made from the same pieces keep the same area, and how corner angles combine. It suits primary and middle-school maths lab periods.
- Shape composition: forming squares, triangles and figures from the seven pieces.
- Area and fractions: working out what fraction of the whole square each piece covers, then rebuilding the same area with 1-inch Plastic Color Tiles.
- Angles: measuring and combining the corner angles of the pieces with a Goniometer Angle.
- Visual memory and perception: reproducing a silhouette from memory.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Tangram kit comprises four complete plastic tangram sets with seven geometric pieces in each, 28 pieces altogether; each set forms a 4-inch square. Colours may vary. Outline cards and worksheets can be prepared by the teacher, and geoboards or mirrors can be added to the same quotation.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
One kit covers a group of four, and several kits can equip a larger class. Give us your quantity and Science Lab Supplies will send a quotation with packing, delivery time and price, to which geoboards, mirrors or other science kits for students in India can be added.
With an Importer-Exporter Code as a registered exporter, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Ghana, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Uganda, the UAE and Saudi Arabia. Tangram enquiries reach the sales desk through the contact page, can be bundled in the enquiry cart, or may follow the formal route on the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in the Tangram kit?
Four complete plastic tangram sets of seven pieces each, 28 pieces in all. Each set fits together into a 4-inch square, and colours may vary between sets.
How can a tangram be used to teach area?
Because every figure made from the same seven pieces covers the same area as the square, pupils see that shapes can look different yet be equal in area, and can work out each piece's fraction of the whole.
Is Science Lab Supplies the manufacturer or a trader?
Every Tangram kit is made at the Science Lab Supplies factory in Saha, Ambala, India, so the company is its manufacturer and handles each enquiry and quotation itself rather than passing it to a dealer.
How does it differ from the Tangram Set?
Both products consist of four plastic seven-piece tangrams forming 4-inch squares, under different codes (SCL-ML-11970 and LSK-ML-10133). Either code can be quoted; ask us to confirm before ordering if you are unsure which suits your tender.
Related Geometry Puzzle Aids
Tangram lessons lead naturally into symmetry, area on a grid, tracing, fractions and colour-pattern work. The items below support those follow-up activities, from a second tangram code to pattern blocks, tracers, mirrors and fraction circles, and a maths department can put them on one quotation with the tangram kits.
- Tangram Set — four plastic seven-piece tangrams under code LSK-ML-10133; colours may vary.
- Geo and Pin boards — 5 x 5 pin array on one side and a 12-pin circle on the other.
- Mirror Reflection Set — double-sided plastic mirrors for symmetry with pattern blocks or other manipulatives.
- Colour Puzzle — hands-on puzzle for visual discrimination, pattern matching and spatial reasoning.
- 2D Shape Pattern Blocks — blocks in six shapes, strong enough to draw around and stack.
- Shape Tracer — labelled transparent shapes including right and isosceles triangles, a square and a parallelogram.
- Fraction Circles — circles in halves, thirds, fourths, fifths, sixths, tenths and twelfths.
- Base Ten Cubes — 1 cm cubes for teaching area, length and volume measurement.
