Iron Metal Powder & Filings Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Product Code : SCL-CA-12616

The Iron Metal Powder & Filings is a laboratory metal-particle material used for magnetism demonstrations, magnetic field-line observation, separation experiments, and supervised chemistry or physics practicals. It is suitable for trained science teachers, laboratory technicians, school laboratories, college laboratories, STEM classrooms, distributors, and institutional procurement buyers.

Product Description

Iron Metal Powder & Filings from School Equipments India is prepared for the laboratory chemicals, physics consumables, and magnetism demonstration category. A direct verified standalone product page for this exact title was not found, so pack size, particle size, purity, grade, SDS, COA, and final packaging should be confirmed before publication or ordering.

Iron powder and iron filings are commonly used to show magnetic field patterns around bar magnets, horseshoe magnets, and electromagnets. Iron powder is identified by CAS number 7439-89-6. Because fine metal particles can create dust and handling risks, the material should be used only with PPE, controlled dispensing, and teacher supervision.

Key Features

• Magnetism demonstration material: used to visualise magnetic field lines and magnetic attraction.
• Iron-based particles: suitable for demonstrations involving magnets and electromagnets.
• Classroom practical value: useful in physics, chemistry, and STEM teaching activities.
• Separation experiment use: supports demonstrations of magnetic separation from mixed materials.
• Dust-control handling: avoid airborne powder and unnecessary inhalation exposure.
• Procurement-safe listing: unknown grade, particle size, pack size, and assay are marked for confirmation.

How to Use the Iron Metal Powder & Filings

1. Read the SDS and laboratory risk assessment before opening the container.
2. Wear safety goggles, gloves, and a lab coat before handling the material.
3. Use a small quantity on a sealed tray, clear sheet, or approved demonstration surface.
4. Place the magnet below or near the sheet to show field-line patterns.
5. Tap the sheet gently so the filings align with the magnetic field.
6. Keep the powder away from flames, sparks, electrical contacts, and open containers of liquid.
7. Collect used filings carefully and return clean material to a labelled container if permitted by the SOP.
8. Dispose of contaminated material according to institutional waste rules.

Safety note: Do not blow on iron powder or create airborne dust. Keep fine particles away from ignition sources, eyes, mouth, and unsupervised student handling.

Care & Maintenance

• Store tightly closed in a dry, labelled container.
• Keep away from moisture to reduce rusting and contamination.
• Use clean scoops or spatulas to avoid mixing with other chemicals.
• Discard rusted, contaminated, unlabelled, or wet material according to laboratory procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Iron Metal Powder & Filings used for?

Iron Metal Powder & Filings is used for magnetism demonstrations, magnetic field-line observation, magnetic separation activities, and supervised school science practicals.

What is the CAS number of iron powder?

The CAS number for iron powder. This number should be used to match SDS, COA, and procurement records.

Can iron filings show magnetic field lines?

Yes. Iron filings align around magnets and electromagnets, making magnetic field patterns visible during classroom demonstrations.

Is iron powder safe for school laboratories?

It can be used in school laboratories under supervision. Users should avoid dust generation, inhalation, eye contact, and exposure to ignition sources.

Can it be reused after a demonstration?

Clean, dry filings may be reused if the laboratory SOP permits it. Contaminated, wet, or chemically exposed filings should not be returned to the main container.

What documents should be confirmed before ordering?

Confirm the SDS, COA or batch details, pack size, particle size, grade, label details, and final packaging before ordering.
