conical flask
Conical flasks, also known as Erlenmeyer flasks, are widely used laboratory glassware characterized by a flat bottom, conical body, and a narrow neck. Made typically from borosilicate glass, they are designed to hold, mix, and heat liquids safely. The narrow neck helps reduce evaporation and splashing during experiments. Conical flasks are essential for titrations, culturing microorganisms, and general solution preparation in laboratories and industrial settings.
Cork to fit conical flask
Cork to Fit Conical Flask is a tapered sealing component made from natural or synthetic cork, designed to provide a snug, airtight closure for conical (Erlenmeyer) flasks. These stoppers are essential for laboratory procedures requiring the containment of samples, prevention of evaporation, or protection from airborne contaminants. Their compressibility, resistance to mild chemicals, and reusability make them ideal for both general lab work and industrial testing environments. The corks are precisely sized to fit standard flask openings, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of flask volumes.
Cork to fit test tube
Cork to Fit Test Tube is a conical sealing component made from natural or synthetic cork, designed specifically to fit snugly into standard laboratory test tubes. It ensures a tight seal that prevents contamination, limits evaporation, and maintains sample integrity during storage or handling. Due to its compressible and chemically resistant structure, it is ideal for routine laboratory operations and industrial testing processes. These corks are available in various sizes to accommodate a wide range of test tube diameters and are compatible with both glass and plastic tubes.
Cotton twine
Cotton Twine is a versatile filament made from twisted strands of natural cotton fibers. It is soft yet durable, offering flexibility and strength for binding, tying, or securing items in both laboratory and industrial environments. Cotton twine is non-abrasive, lint-minimal, and chemically inert to most laboratory reagents, making it suitable for specimen tying, light bundling, or general-purpose securing within controlled settings.
Crocodile Clips
Crocodile Clips are versatile electrical connectors featuring serrated jaws to securely grip wires or terminals. Commonly made from copper or brass with a nickel or chrome plating, these clips ensure reliable conductivity and mechanical stability. Widely used in laboratory and industrial settings for quick temporary electrical connections, testing, and circuit prototyping.
Crucible with lid
Crucible with Lid is a heat-resistant container used in laboratories and industries to heat, melt, or calcine substances at very high temperatures. Typically made from materials such as porcelain, alumina, or graphite, these crucibles can withstand thermal shock and chemical corrosion. The accompanying lid helps contain the sample, minimize contamination, and reduce material loss during heating or combustion processes.
