American Weigh 8541987247 sand timer set 1/3/5/10/15/30 min pack of 6

Six-timer set for everyday timing

This American Weigh pack contains six sand timers covering 1, 3, 5, 10, 15 and 30 minute intervals. Each hourglass is marked with its duration on both sides and colour-coded for quick identification. The set suits households, classrooms and offices that need visible, non-digital timing for tasks such as tooth brushing, study blocks, cooking or games. It is not a precision instrument and carries a noted deviation of about 10 percent.

Thermals noise and power

The timers operate without batteries, electronics or moving parts, so they produce no heat, no audible noise and draw no power. Sand flow is driven solely by gravity through high borosilicate glass. Occasional static cling may cause grains to stick to the glass; a light tap or brief warmth restores normal flow. Because there are no electrical components, the timers remain completely passive in any environment.

Build quality and daily use

Each timer measures 1.6 inches in diameter and 3.7 inches tall, housed in durable ABS end caps that protect the glass from knocks. The protective covers make the set robust enough for regular handling by children or frequent transport between rooms. At 2.4 ounces per unit they are light enough to carry in a drawer or bag. The colour-coded design lets users select the right duration at a glance without reading the printed numbers.
