Choose this lens when you want a choice of three diameters in one design with a plastic case. The metal-rim hand lens and the plastic-frame magnifier have their magnification stated, which helps when a worksheet or tender names a power, and the reading glass magnifier suits buyers who prefer a chrome-plated metal frame.
What Is the Hand Lens Used For?
A hand lens is the first magnifying tool most students use. In school science and biology practicals it is used to look at the parts of a flower, the veins of a leaf, seeds, insects, soil particles and salt or sugar crystals, and in field work to examine bark, lichens and rocks. As basic biology lab equipment for schools in India it supports observation work from the middle classes upward, before students move on to the microscope.
The lens is converging: when the object lies within its focal length it forms an enlarged, upright image. For the clearest view, hold the lens close to the eye and bring the object towards it until it is sharp. A larger diameter shows more of the object at once, while the magnification depends on the focal length of the lens. Never look at the sun through a lens, do not leave it lying in direct sunlight where it can focus heat onto paper or wood, and wipe the lens only with a soft, clean cloth.
What to Specify When Ordering
- Lens diameter — 50 mm, 75 mm or 100 mm, or a mix of sizes.
- Magnification — if your syllabus or tender names a power, state it so JLab can confirm which size meets it.
- Quantity — the minimum order is 10 units; many schools plan one lens per student or per bench.
- Related items — dissecting dishes and dissection kits can be quoted on the same enquiry.
Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes is this hand lens available in?
Three lens diameters are listed: 50 mm, 75 mm and 100 mm. State the size, or the mix of sizes, on your enquiry.
What is the magnification of this hand lens?
The listing does not state it. Magnification depends on the lens’s focal length, so ask JLab for the figure for the diameter you choose; if you need a stated power, the metal-rim hand lens is listed at 3.5x and the plastic-frame magnifier at 5x.
Which lens size should a school choose?
A smaller lens is light and easy for young hands, while a larger lens shows more of a leaf or insect at once and is easier to share. Many schools choose by the task, so a mixed order is common.
What are the handle and case made of?
The lens is mounted in a black plastic case and the handle is Bakelite, a hard plastic that stays rigid in everyday classroom use.
Is it safe to use a hand lens in sunlight?
It is safe for looking at objects outdoors, but never look at the sun through it, and do not leave it in direct sunlight, because a converging lens can focus enough heat to scorch paper.
What is the minimum order and dispatch lead time?
The minimum order is 10 units, sold individually. Orders usually leave within 7–10 working days, each lens is visually inspected first, and export transit time depends on the destination.
