Those might be too short... The cheapest way I know to measure surface tension (while it is kinda a pain in the ass) is called the capillary rise method. It uses atmospheric pressure and the force of gravity to determine the surface tension. This MIGHT be tall enough, but it really depends. That also may or may not be useful for capillary rise method, although it seems like it should be perfect. Its been a while since I did this experiment. You should read into the capillary rise method and see if it meets your needs. I do remember that it is crucial that the capillary is clean and there are no bubbles in the capillary when measuring it; we used hot nitric acid to clean the capillaries between experiments.
