Volume Measuring Cylinder
Product Code : SCL-CL-11908
Volume Measuring Cylinder (SKU SCL-CL-11908) is a transparent plastic graduated cylinder offered in 10 ml, 50 ml and 100 ml capacities for measuring liquid volumes on the bench. Being plastic, it is a practical choice for younger students, field kits and busy teaching labs where glass breakage is a concern. Science Lab Supplies supplies the cylinder from Ambala, India to schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The cylinder is moulded from transparent, chemical-resistant plastic, so the liquid level and meniscus can be read against the graduations. Three sizes let a lab measure small reagent volumes in the 10 ml cylinder and larger portions of water or solution in the 50 ml and 100 ml cylinders.

Applications and Experiments for the Plastic Measuring Cylinder
A measuring cylinder measures a set volume of liquid quickly and more closely than a beaker, which makes it one of the first instruments students learn to read. It is used across CBSE/NCERT Class 6–12 science, B.Sc. practicals, and laboratory-technician and nursing training.
- Class 6–8 science: measuring water volumes and finding the volume of an irregular solid by displacement.
- Class 9 physics: density of a liquid from its measured mass and volume.
- Class 10–12 chemistry: measuring reagents and solvents for reactions.
- Technician training: practising meniscus reading at eye level.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each Volume Measuring Cylinder is one transparent plastic cylinder in the 10 ml, 50 ml or 100 ml size selected. Mixed-size sets can be quoted; droppers for adjusting to the line and glass cylinders for heated liquids are separate items.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Ask for a few cylinders or a complete class set in all three sizes. The quotation confirms the packing, delivery time and price for your chosen quantities, and beakers or droppers can be added to equip school chemistry lab benches in one order.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which capacities are available?
Three: 10 ml, 50 ml and 100 ml. Pick the smallest cylinder that holds the volume you need, as a smaller cylinder gives a closer reading.
Why choose a plastic cylinder?
Transparent plastic resists breakage on school benches and in kits, and the material is chemical-resistant for common laboratory liquids. For hot liquids, a glass cylinder is the safer choice.
How should the volume be read?
Stand the cylinder on a level bench and read the bottom of the meniscus with your eye level to the mark to avoid parallax error.
Who supplies the Volume Measuring Cylinder?
Science Lab Supplies supplies it from Ambala, India, and offers it as part of its school chemistry lab equipment in India range in class or bulk quantities.
