A glass tubing cutter with a wheel type design is a commonly used tool in laboratories for precisely cutting glass tubing. These cutters are preferred for their ability to make clean and smooth cuts with minimal effort and risk of breaking the glass unevenly.
Description
Uses of Glass Tubing Cutter Wheel Type
1. Preparing Custom Glassware
- Cutting Glass Tubing to Size: Customizing the length of glass tubing to create specific pieces of glassware such as pipettes, burettes, and condensers.
- Crafting Specialized Apparatus: Making precise cuts for specialized glass apparatus required in unique experimental setups.
2. Modifying Existing Glassware
- Trimming Glass Pieces: Adjusting the length of glass tubing in pre-made laboratory setups for optimal fit and function.
- Creating Openings: Making openings or notches in glassware for connections or modifications.
3. Chemical and Biological Experiments
- Setting Up Reactions: Preparing glass tubing for use in various chemical reactions, ensuring the tubing fits properly into reaction setups.
- Biological Sampling: Creating customized glass tools for sampling and handling biological materials.
4. Instrumentation Assembly
- Assembling Glass Instruments: Constructing and modifying glass components in instruments like gas chromatography setups, distillation columns, and other analytical equipment.
- Repair and Maintenance: Repairing damaged glass parts of laboratory instruments to ensure they function correctly.
5. Educational Demonstrations
- Teaching Tool: Demonstrating proper glass cutting techniques in educational settings to train students and laboratory personnel.
- Hands-On Learning: Allowing students to practice cutting glass tubing as part of their laboratory skills development.
6. Creating Joints and Connectors
- Fabricating Glass Joints: Making precise cuts to form joints and connectors between different glass components, ensuring airtight and secure connections.
- Connecting Tubes: Customizing glass tubing to create smooth connections in complex glassware assemblies.
7. Smoothing Edges and Preparing Ends
- Deburring Edges: After cutting, the edges can be sharp; the cutter helps in making clean cuts that are easier to smooth with minimal additional work.
- Preparing Ends for Sealing: Ensuring the cut ends of the glass tubing are smooth and even, making them easier to seal with heat or to attach to other components.
8. Safety Enhancements
- Reducing Breakage Risk: By making clean, precise cuts, the cutter helps reduce the risk of glass breakage and associated hazards during experiments.
- Minimizing Injuries: Proper use of the cutter minimizes the likelihood of injuries that can occur from jagged or improperly cut glass.

Aspirator Bottle Glass
A laboratory aspirator glass bottle, also known as a vacuum aspirator bottle or a vacuum filtration flask, is a specialized glass container used in scientific laboratories for various applications. It is designed to create a vacuum or negative pressure, which allows the filtration of liquids through a porous medium like a filter paper or a membrane.
The bottle typically has a conical or pear-shaped body with a sidearm or neck near the top. This neck is where a rubber or silicone stopper is inserted, allowing for the attachment of tubing or a hose to connect to a vacuum source or water aspirator. (Available in 2.5l,5l,10l,)
Laboratory aspirator glass bottles are commonly used in vacuum filtration processes to separate a solid precipitate from a liquid solution. When connected to a vacuum source, the air inside the bottle is removed, creating a pressure difference that draws the liquid through the filter, leaving the solid behind on the filter paper.
These bottles come in various sizes to accommodate different filtration needs and are an essential tool in many research, analytical, and quality control laboratories for tasks like separating particulate matter, sterilizing solutions, and performing various filtration techniques. They are often made of durable borosilicate glass to withstand the pressure changes and chemical interactions that may occur during laboratory operations.
Barlows wheel apparatus
The Barlow's wheel apparatus is an experimental device used to demonstrate the conversion of electrical energy into mechanical energy through electromagnetic principles. It consists of a horizontal wheel or disk with radial metal spokes attached to its center. The wheel is mounted on an axle, allowing it to rotate freely.
bell in vacuum
A "bell in vacuum" apparatus is a scientific setup used to demonstrate the effects of reduced air pressure (vacuum) on sound transmission. It typically consists of a bell or sound-producing object enclosed within a sealed chamber from which air has been removed, creating a low-pressure environment. This apparatus is designed to illustrate how sound travels differently in a vacuum compared to in normal atmospheric conditions, highlighting the role of air molecules in sound propagation.

Bernoulli Tube Apparatus
The Bernoulli tube apparatus, also known as a Venturi tube apparatus, is a scientific device used to demonstrate the principles of fluid dynamics, particularly the Bernoulli's principle. It consists of a specially shaped tube with a constricted region, often referred to as a Venturi section. When fluid (liquid or gas) flows through the tube, the constricted section leads to changes in pressure and velocity according to Bernoulli's principle, which states that as the velocity of a fluid increases, its pressure decreases and vice versa. This apparatus is commonly used in educational settings to visually illustrate how the flow of a fluid can affect its pressure, helping to explain various phenomena like lift in aircraft wings, fluid flow through pipes, and more.
Blotting paper
Blotting paper is a highly absorbent and thin sheet of paper, typically made from materials like cotton, linen, or other plant fibers. It is designed to quickly absorb excess liquids, such as ink, oil, or moisture, from various surfaces without smudging or smearing the substances. Blotting paper is commonly used to remove excess ink from a freshly written page, absorb oil from the skin without disturbing makeup, or dry wet items. It is often found in office settings, art studios, and cosmetic applications due to its efficient absorption properties.
