Universal hydrometer
Product Code : SCL-PLE-10395
The Universal Hydrometer from Lab Glassware Manufacturer is a laboratory measuring instrument used to check the specific gravity or relative density of liquids.
Quick answer: A universal hydrometer floats in a liquid sample held in a jar and reads relative density directly off its calibrated stem, used across chemistry, physics, and quality-control testing.

How Does a Hydrometer Work?
A hydrometer floats vertically in a liquid sample; the depth to which it sinks depends on the liquid’s density, and the calibrated stem is read at the liquid surface to give a direct specific-gravity value, commonly used alongside a hydrometer jar to hold the sample.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a universal hydrometer used for?
A: It measures the specific gravity or relative density of liquids by floating in a sample and reading the calibrated stem.
Q: What measurement range does it cover?
A: Range and scale graduation vary by model; confirm the specific range needed for your application with our team before ordering.
Q: Is a jar included with the hydrometer?
A: This listing is for the hydrometer itself; confirm with our team if a matching hydrometer jar is needed separately.
