Hand Bone Model

Product Code : SCL-BLE-10951

The hand bone model is an anatomical teaching model used for demonstrating the carpals, metacarpals, phalanges and key skeletal landmarks of the human hand in biology, anatomy and medical training. It helps students study wrist bones, palm bones, finger bones and joint relationships through direct visual observation.

Product Description

The Hand Bone Model by Lab Glassware Manufacturer is designed for anatomy classrooms, biology laboratories, nursing institutes, paramedical training centres and medical colleges. It provides a focused physical reference for explaining the skeletal structure of the hand and its role in grip, movement and upper-limb function.

This model supports repeated classroom demonstration without using biological specimens. It is useful for teaching carpal arrangement, metacarpal alignment, phalange structure, thumb opposition and basic hand-joint anatomy. It is a practical addition to institutional biology lab equipment collections.
