Materials Kit
Product Code : LSK-CL-10241
Materials Kit (SKU LSK-CL-10241) is a set of common substances cut into rectangular blocks so that students can see, touch and compare them directly. By handling each block, learners become familiar with the appearance, texture, feel, hardness and density of everyday materials, a foundation for lessons on sorting and choosing materials in middle-school science. Science Lab Supplies sources and ships the kit from Ambala, India for schools, teacher-training colleges, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
Every sample in the kit shares the same rectangular block form, so differences in weight and feel come from the material itself rather than its shape. This makes side-by-side comparison of hardness and density fair and easy for younger students. The listing does not name the individual materials; the quotation lists them.

Applications and Experiments for the Materials Kit
Teachers pass the blocks round so students can describe and group materials by what they observe: shiny or dull, rough or smooth, hard or soft, heavy or light for their size. Weighing blocks of equal shape then leads naturally into the idea of density.
- Class 6 science (NCERT): sorting materials into groups by appearance, hardness and other properties.
- Class 8 science: comparing physical properties such as hardness and lustre.
- Class 9 science: introducing density and relative density with same-shaped samples.
- Primary and teacher-training science: hands-on vocabulary for describing materials.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Materials Kit is supplied as a single set of rectangular material blocks as described above. The listing does not give the number of blocks or name each substance, so the quotation sets out the contents; a balance or measuring equipment for density work is a separate item.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Schools may ask for one kit for demonstration or several for group work, and Science Lab Supplies prices that exact number with its packing and delivery time. Other sample packs and school chemistry lab equipment in India can share the same quotation.
As a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies is able to ship to buyers in Bangladesh, Zambia, Rwanda, South Africa, Qatar and Sri Lanka. Write in through the contact page, build a list in the enquiry cart, or see the lab tender page for institutional tenders.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Materials Kit used for?
It lets students compare the appearance, texture, feel, hardness and density of common substances by handling blocks of the same shape, which supports lessons on classifying materials.
Why are the samples all rectangular blocks?
A common shape removes size and form as variables, so students notice differences that belong to the material itself, such as weight for its size or how easily it scratches.
Which materials are in the kit?
The listing describes a selection of common substances without naming each one. Ask through the contact page and the quotation will list the materials in the set.
Who supplies the Materials Kit?
Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India provides this kit alongside plastics, fabrics and density sample sets, so a school can source its whole materials topic from one supplier.
Related Materials and Density Kits
After a first look at common substances, lessons usually move on to specific material families and to measuring density. These four items from the Chemistry Lab range carry the same topic further and can be quoted with the kit.
- Density Cube Set — equal cubes for measuring density.
- Plastics Sample Pack — 12 unusual plastics with distinct properties.
- Fabrics Sample Pack — textile samples for comparing fibres.
- Physical Properties of Glass — a closer look at one material.
