  • This 9 piece set includes a variety of materials in the form of 1" cubes. Materials included - brass, iron, copper, aluminum, hardwood, softwood, nylon, PVC and acrylic. Set includes a wooden storage box
  • Excellent for physics classrooms. This set allows learners to explore a variety of physics concepts, including density & mass
  • Set includes an instruction manual that describes the materials and applicable uses
  • Designed to be used in an educational setting and are not fabricated using ultra high precision machining. Expect tolerances in the +/- 5% range of any stated dimensions (although they are generally much tighter).
  • The Eisco Labs Density Investigation series is intended to help learners become familiar with the appearance, texture, hardness and density of a variety of common substances, explore volume, density & mass and provide them with quality introductory physics and chemistry concepts


Product Description

Science education products incorporate applied math and science principles into classroom and homeschool-based projects. Teachers in pre-K, elementary, and secondary classrooms use science education kits and products alongside science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) curriculum to demonstrate STEM concepts and real-world applications through hands-on activities. Science education projects include a broad range of activities, such as practical experiments in engineering, aeronautics, robotics, energy, chemistry, physics, biology, and geology.

EISCO Scientific manufactures and supplies lab equipment for education and industry. The company, founded in 1968 and headquartered in Rochester, NY, meets International Organization of Standardization (ISO) standard 9001: 2000.

9 Piece Materials Variety Set

This 9 piece set includes a variety of materials in the form of 1" cubes. Set includes a wooden storage box.

Set Includes:

  • Brass
  • Iron
  • Copper
  • Aluminum
  • Hardwood
  • Softwood
  • Nylon
  • PVC
  • Acrylic

Excellent for physics classrooms. Set includes a complete manual that describes the basics of density, mass and volume, and instructions for making calculations. Due to the nature of raw metals, some oxidation or corrosion due to humidity and storage may occur. Simply scuff any oxidation off to make the item look brand new again. These density metals are designed to be used in an educational setting and are not fabricated using ultra high precision machining. Expect tolerances in the +/- 5% range of any stated dimensions (although they are generally much tighter).

The Eisco Labs Density Investigation series is intended to help learners become familiar with appearance, feel, texture, hardness and density of a range of common substances in addition to providing them the tools to identify and figure out mass, understand the relationship between mass, volume & density, to understand specific heat and specific gravity and provide them with quality introductory physics and chemistry concepts.

EISCO LABS TRUST LEARN DELIVER science physics biology classroom teaching education products school

Eisco Scientific started over 50 years ago as a small, family-owned manufacturing company serving the science education marketplace. Since then we have grown into a multinational corporation with headquarters located in both India and the United States that serve hundreds of distributors in over 100 countries throughout the world. Our mission is simple; to be TRUSTED by educators, researchers, and scientists throughout the world to design, manufacture, and DELIVER products that allow LEARNING and the development of scientific knowledge.

We produce over 6,500 unique product lines for the science education and scientific research markets. Our core product lines include:

Physics – Whether you are studying forces and motion or Schrödinger’s wave equation, we have the apparatus and experiments you need to study those topics and everything in between. Our business started with physics and these products remain a strong product line today.

Chemistry & Lab Supplies – It takes a lot of supplies and equipment to study chemistry. It has been said that if you tipped a chemistry classroom upside down, everything that falls out that is not a chemical is a product we manufacture. That includes beakers, burners, tongs, and anything made of glass, plastic, metal, ceramic or cork.

Biology –We provide everything a biology classroom needs except for the specimens. Our product line ranges from hundreds of anatomical models, to dissecting equipment, to microscopes and slides.

Glassware –We manufacture every piece of glassware you can find in a lab. Our glassware meets various international standards, including ISO, and is made from borosilicate 3.3 glass.

Very poor quality. Specifically, metal “blocks” are not cut square, and faces are not flat. Edge lengths of the Iron (Fe) block range from 0.9925” to .9595”. Faces are nowhere close to square (perpendicular). Quite far from being cubes! Super sloppy production!

These cubes are a wonderful addition to our homeschool classroom. We will be moving from Biology into Chemistry soon. The box itself with all its contents is heavy. I think it isa great way to show the same sized object can have different densities. It is small enough for students to hold one in each hand and feel for themselves. I love teaching with a multi-sensory approach. I believe it offers multiple "hooks" for students to grasp and retain knowledge.I would highly recommend this set to anyone who teaches or has curious ones at home. Please just be cautious with any uneven edges.Much Love!
