Wood Splints
Product Code : LSK-CL-10088
Wood Splints (SKU LSK-CL-10088) are wooden splints used in school chemistry to carry a flame to a burner and, as glowing splints, to test for oxygen. They serve gas-testing work from middle-school science to Class 11–12 chemistry. Orders are handled from Ambala, India, where Science Lab Supplies supplies schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors with school chemistry lab equipment in India.
Specifications
The table sets out what is specified for these wood splints. In brief, they are wooden splints of the glowing type with two jobs: lighting a Bunsen or spirit burner, and the glowing-splint test, in which a splint whose tip is still glowing bursts back into flame in oxygen. Length and pack count are confirmed on the quotation.

Applications and Experiments for the Wood Splints
Splints are used wherever a class needs to light a burner or identify a gas. A glowing splint relights in oxygen, while a burning one gives a squeaky pop with hydrogen and goes out in carbon dioxide, which makes this simple item a basic tool for gas-testing practicals in secondary science.
- Class 7–8 science: lighting burners and spirit lamps for heating activities.
- Class 10 science (NCERT): testing the gas from zinc and dilute acid, collected in Test Tubes, with a burning splint.
- Class 11 chemistry: confirming oxygen released by decomposing Hydrogen Peroxide 6% Analytical Solution with a glowing splint, under teacher supervision.
- Teacher demonstrations of combustion, for example lowering a burning sample into a gas jar on the Deflagrating Spoon and Cap.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each order consists of wooden glowing splints for lighting burners and for oxygen tests. Your quotation states the pack size and the number of packs for the quantity you request. Burners, test tubes, gas jars and reagents are separate items, and any of them can be added to the same quotation.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Order a single pack for one classroom or enough to stock every chemistry bench in a school; the quotation from Science Lab Supplies sets out packing, delivery time and price for that quantity. Burners, test tubes and gas preparation kits can be listed in the same enquiry.
As a registered exporter holding an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Zambia, Rwanda, South Africa, Qatar, Sri Lanka and Vietnam.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the glowing splint test?
It is the standard school test for oxygen. A splint is lit, blown out so only the tip glows, and pushed into the gas; if the gas is oxygen, the splint bursts back into flame.
Can these splints be used to test for hydrogen?
Yes. A burning splint held at the mouth of a test tube of hydrogen gives a squeaky pop, which is how students confirm the gas from a metal and acid reaction.
Who supplies the Wood Splints?
Science Lab Supplies supplies these splints from Ambala, India as part of its chemistry range, so a school can have splints, burners and test tubes priced together on a single quotation.
How many splints come in a pack?
Pack size is confirmed on the quotation. Send the number of splints or packs you need through the contact page, and Science Lab Supplies will state the pack size, number of packs and price.
