Mortar and pestle

Product Description Mortar and Pestle is a traditional laboratory apparatus consisting of a bowl (mortar) and a heavy club-shaped tool (pestle) used to manually grind, crush, and mix solid substances into fine powders or pastes. Made from durable materials such as ceramic, glass, porcelain, or stone, this tool facilitates the preparation of samples for chemical analysis, pharmaceutical compounding, and food laboratory testing. The mortar’s thick walls and the pestle’s sturdy design allow effective pulverization without contamination. Mortar and pestle sets are essential in laboratories for homogenizing powders, breaking down crystals, and preparing reagents and mixtures. Their simplicity and reliability make them a staple in chemistry, biology, pharmacology, and food science labs worldwide.
