Tripod Magnifier
Product Code : LSK-LAO-11152
Tripod Magnifier (SKU LSK-LAO-11152) is a 10X table magnifier: plano-convex optics in a black plastic frame stand on three metal legs over the specimen, giving an undistorted field through an 18 mm aperture. It is designed for the laboratory table and suits elementary biology, dissections and closer examination of specimens. Manufacturing takes place at the Science Lab Supplies plant on Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, India, from where the company deals directly with schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
All the facts about this 10X tripod magnifier are set out in the table below. In short, plano-convex lenses with an 18 mm (0.75 inch) aperture sit in a black plastic frame on three metal legs, holding the optics at a fixed height above the bench and giving an undistorted field of view.

Applications and Experiments for the Tripod Magnifier
Because the magnifier stands on its own legs, the specimen stays in focus while the student draws it, counts parts or works with instruments. That makes it useful in elementary biology labs, at dissection trays and wherever small specimens need a steady 10X view without a microscope.
- NCERT Class 6–8 science: drawing flower parts, seeds, insects and leaf surfaces at 10X.
- Class 9–10 biology: observing earthworm or flower dissections laid out in a Dissecting Tray with Wax.
- Fine dissection, with the tripod placed over the work while instruments from Dissecting Set A are used beneath it.
- Checking crystals, rock grains and fabric samples in general science.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Tripod Magnifier is supplied as a single unit as described above: the 10X plano-convex optics with an 18 mm aperture in a black plastic frame on three metal legs. Dissecting trays, instruments and specimens are separate items and can be listed on the same quotation.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Quotations can be issued for one tripod magnifier or for a full biology class set. Science Lab Supplies details the packing, delivery time and price for that quantity, and dissecting sets, trays or other magnifiers can be added so the whole order arrives together.
Science Lab Supplies, as a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, can ship to buyers in Egypt, Iraq, Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana and Ethiopia. The business is registered under Udyam as a manufacturing enterprise (UDYAM-HR-01-0014546) and for GST (GSTIN 06ADEPJ0574F2ZU).

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the magnification of the Tripod Magnifier?
It magnifies 10X through plano-convex optics with an 18 mm (0.75 inch) aperture. The field is undistorted, so shapes and proportions of the specimen look true across the view.
Why does it have three legs?
The three metal legs hold the black plastic frame steady above the specimen on the laboratory table, so the student does not need to hold the lens and has both hands free for drawing or dissection.
Is it suitable for dissection classes?
Yes. The magnifier is intended for elementary biology laboratories and dissections. Stand it over the tray and adjust the specimen or your viewing position until the detail is sharp.
Is Science Lab Supplies the manufacturer of this magnifier?
Science Lab Supplies is its manufacturer. The tripod magnifier is built at the company’s Saha, Ambala site in India, which means buyers obtain prices from the source of production, not from a trading intermediary.
Related Magnifiers and Dissecting Equipment
These magnifiers and dissecting items work alongside a table magnifier in biology practicals: hand-held and eye-worn lenses for quick checks, a dissecting microscope for higher detail and a basic instrument set, so a laboratory can quote everything for its dissection benches at once.
- Plastic Handheld Magnifier — 3X lens about 38 mm in diameter for young students.
- Single Lens Eye Loupe — hands-free 5X loupe, 25 mm long and 35 mm in diameter.
- Double Lens Folding Pocket Magnifier — pocket-sized 5X or 10X magnifier for field and laboratory use.
