Glass tubing cutter file

Uses

• Cutting Glass Tubing: The primary function is to cut glass tubes to specific lengths needed for experiments, such as those used in making glassware or setting up apparatus.
• Preparation of Glass Pipettes: It can be used to create precise openings for glass pipettes, which are used for transferring liquids.
• Creating Reaction Vessels: Glass tubing can be shaped into reaction vessels by cutting and connecting various lengths, allowing for custom setups in experiments.
• Fabricating Glass Apparatus: Researchers often need specific configurations for glass apparatus. A tubing cutter enables the creation of customized equipment like condensers and distillation columns.
• Safety and Precision: Using a glass tubing cutter ensures clean cuts, reducing the risk of sharp edges and potential injuries compared to breaking glass manually.
• Reduction of Waste: By allowing for precise cutting, glass tubing cutters help minimize material waste, ensuring more efficient use of resources
