Jlab Export is a leading Metal Sphere Manufacturer,and suppliers in India
Metal Sphere (code EL-ELA-5238) is a stainless steel sphere for physics experiments and teaching demonstrations, offered in different diameters to suit the experiment. It is used in school and college physics labs wherever a rust-resistant metal ball of known size is needed. It is made by Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd (JLab) at its works in Ambala, India.

What Is the Metal Sphere Used For?
A steel sphere turns up in several standard physics practicals. Students measure its diameter with vernier calipers or a screw gauge, a class 11 exercise in reading measuring instruments and finding volume; they drop it through glycerine or another viscous liquid, time its terminal velocity and apply Stokes’ law to find the coefficient of viscosity; and they roll it down an inclined plane or use it in collision and momentum demonstrations. Because stainless steel resists rusting, the sphere can be wiped dry after use in liquids and reused many times. Choose the diameter to suit the experiment — for example, small enough to fall slowly and centrally through a viscosity tube.
What to Specify When Ordering
- Diameter — state the size or sizes you need, as several are available.
- Quantity — the minimum order is 10 units; a viscosity practical usually needs a few spheres per group.
- Measuring tools — add vernier calipers or a screw gauge to the same enquiry if required.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the metal sphere made of?
Stainless steel, which resists rusting, so it can be used in liquids and wiped dry afterwards.
Which sizes are available?
The sphere is available in different diameters. The listing does not give the sizes, so state the diameter you need and JLab will confirm.
Can it be used to find the viscosity of a liquid?
Yes, that is a common use: timing a falling steel sphere at terminal velocity in a viscous liquid and applying Stokes’ law gives the coefficient of viscosity.
Who manufactures the metal sphere?
Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd (JLab), at its works in Ambala, Haryana, India.
OEM Manufacturer
JLab is the trading name of Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, a physics and laboratory equipment manufacturer in India, incorporated in 2017 and based on Hargolal Road, Ambala, Haryana. The spheres are made at JLab’s own works rather than bought in from a trader, so schools, colleges, dealers and importers buy them factory-direct and every piece is visually inspected before dispatch. JLab exports worldwide and ships to buyers in every region — for example Paraguay in South America, Morocco in North Africa, the USA in North America, Congo in Central Africa and Georgia in Eastern Europe.
