Product Code : SCL-CL-12023
Test Tube Holder with Handle (SKU SCL-CL-12023) is a spring wire test tube clamp mounted on a wooden handle, used to hold a tube in a flame, move it from a hot water bath or pour from it without touching the glass. It is one of the first tools students learn to use in the science lab. Science Lab Supplies ships it from Ambala, India, to schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors of chemistry lab equipment in India.
Specifications
The clamp is nickel-plated spring steel wire that closes by itself onto tubes of 12 mm to 25 mm outer diameter. It is fixed to a polished hardwood handle that insulates the hand from heat, and the whole holder is 180 mm long, keeping fingers clear of the flame.

Applications and Experiments for the Test Tube Holder
The holder lets a student heat a test tube directly in a flame or carry it while hot. It is used for heating experiments in middle-school science, CBSE Class 9–12 chemistry and biology practicals, and B.Sc. qualitative analysis, as well as in school science kits.
- Class 6–8 science: heating water or small solid samples in a test tube.
- Class 10: heating reactants for the decomposition and displacement reactions.
- Salt analysis: heating the salt and testing evolved gases.
- Biology: moving tubes out of a boiling water bath during food tests.
Clamp the tube near its mouth, tilt it slightly with the opening away from everyone, and heat gently while moving the tube, under a teacher's supervision.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is this holder different from the brass test tube clamp?
This model uses nickel-plated spring steel wire on a hardwood handle, 180 mm long, and comes ten to a pack. The Wooden Handle Brass Test Tube Clamp uses brass strip, is 160 mm long and comes in sets of 12.
Does the handle get hot?
The hardwood handle insulates the hand from the heat of the clamp and tube. Still keep the handle out of the flame and let hot tubes cool in a rack.
Who supplies the Test Tube Holder with Handle?
Science Lab Supplies, Ambala, India, is the supplier. It handles quotations for schools, colleges and dealers directly and can combine the holders with other lab items in one order.
