How Does It Compare with the JLab Spark Lighter?
| Model | Finish | Other listed details |
|---|---|---|
| This gas lighter (EL-SLE-4563) | Zinc-plated spring handle, rust resistant | Rotating file for a fresh sparking surface; deep gas trap; up to 2000 ignitions; for laboratory gas burners |
| Spark Lighter | Nickel-plated surface, anti-rust | Listed for oxy-acetylene; keeps fingers and hand out of the flame path |
Choose this lighter for lighting Bunsen and other laboratory gas burners at student benches; the Spark Lighter is the nickel-plated model listed for oxy-acetylene torches, which suits workshops that also do gas welding.
What Is the Gas Lighter Used For?
Every practical that uses a Bunsen burner starts with lighting it, and a spark lighter does that without matches. Squeezing the spring handle strikes sparks from the file into the cup, and the deep gas trap holds a little gas so that the sparks catch it at once. The usual sequence is to close the burner’s air hole, hold the lighter just above the burner top, turn the gas on, squeeze to strike, and then open the air hole to get a hot blue flame. Students keep their hand out of the flame path and there are no burning matchsticks to drop on the bench, which is why many school chemistry and biology labs, college teaching labs and ITI workshops keep one at every gas point.
Keep the lighter dry when not in use and away from the flame once the burner is lit. Because the file rotates, a fresh part of its surface can be brought into use as one area wears.
What to Specify When Ordering
- Quantity — the minimum order is 10 lighters; labs often plan one per bench or gas tap, plus a few spares.
- Burners and tubing — add Bunsen burners and burner tubing to the same enquiry when equipping new benches.
- Replacement planning — with up to 2000 ignitions listed per lighter, busy labs may want spare lighters on the same order.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Gas Lighter used for?
Lighting laboratory gas burners such as Bunsen burners. It produces sparks at the burner top, so no match or open flame is needed.
How many ignitions does it give?
The listing states up to 2000 ignitions. The actual number depends on how firmly and how often it is used.
How does the lighter work?
Squeezing the spring handle strikes sparks from the file, and the deep gas trap collects a little gas from the burner so that the sparks ignite it quickly. The file rotates to bring a fresh sparking surface into use.
Will the handle rust in a damp lab?
The spring handle is zinc plated and listed as rust resistant, which helps on wet benches near sinks. Keep it away from acid spills, which attack zinc plating. Storing it dry still helps it last.
How is it different from the Spark Lighter?
This model has a zinc-plated spring handle, a rotating file and a deep gas trap for laboratory gas burners. The Spark Lighter is listed with a nickel-plated surface for oxy-acetylene use.
Is a spark lighter safer than matches?
In a teaching lab it usually is: the hand stays out of the flame path and there are no lit matchsticks to dispose of. Normal burner safety — tied-back hair, gas off when not in use — still applies.
What is the minimum order and dispatch time?
The minimum order is 10 units, sold individually. Dispatch is usually within 7–10 working days after a visual inspection of every lighter; export transit is extra.
What details are needed for an export quotation?
The quantity, destination country and port or city, delivery terms such as FOB or CIF, any packing or labelling requirements, and a tender reference if applicable.
Who manufactures the Gas Lighter?
JLab (Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd) makes it at its works in Ambala, Haryana, India.
OEM Manufacturer
JLab is the trading name of Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, a school and college lab equipment manufacturer in India, incorporated in 2017 and operating from Hargolal Road, Ambala, Haryana. The gas lighter is made at JLab’s own works rather than bought in from a trader, so schools, colleges, dealers and importers order it factory-direct, every lighter is visually inspected before dispatch, and repeat supplies come from the manufacturer itself. JLab exports worldwide and ships to buyers in every region — Burkina Faso in West Africa, Japan in East Asia, Canada in North America, Bhutan in South Asia and Lesotho in Southern Africa are some examples. For tenders, see the JLab lab tenders page.
