Explore density with measurable cubes from real materials
The Density Cube Set (Set of 12) gives students hands-on experience with density, mass, volume, and material properties using real, measurable samples. Each one-inch cube is easy to weigh, measure, and calculate—making density a concrete, data-driven concept rather than an abstract formula. With materials ranging from woods to plastics to metals, this set invites comparison, investigation, and meaningful analysis across multiple science disciplines.
Why Teachers Love the Density Cube Set
- Wide variety of materials: Includes PVC, acrylic, pine, oak, lignum vitae, polypropylene, poplar, steel, aluminum, brass, copper, and nylon.
- Classroom-ready organization: Comes with a density reference table and a durable plastic storage box.
- Versatile sample size: One-inch cubes are ideal for balances, displacement experiments, and calorimeters.

What You Can Teach with the Density Cube Set
Ideal for elementary, middle school, high school, and introductory college labs:
- Density calculations: Mass ÷ volume using uniform objects
- Material identification: Comparing measured density to reference values
- Specific gravity: Exploring floating, sinking, and relative density
- Specific heat investigations: Using cubes in calorimetry experiments
- Measurement skills: Precision weighing, volume measurement, and data analysis
- Scientific inquiry: Making predictions, testing hypotheses, and interpreting results
Real-World Applications
The concept of density plays a critical role in science, engineering, and everyday decision-making:
- Engineering & architecture: Understanding density helps professionals choose materials based on strength-to-weight ratio, buoyancy, and thermal properties.
- Manufacturing & quality control: Measuring density is a key method for detecting flaws, impurities, or inconsistencies in materials.
- Real-world problem solving: Density explains why objects float or sink, how heat transfers through materials, and how substances behave in different environments.
