 Product Description
Laboratory Beakers are versatile cylindrical glass or plastic containers used widely in scientific laboratories for mixing, stirring, heating, and measuring liquids. Made typically from borosilicate glass or durable plastic, they offer excellent chemical resistance and thermal stability. Their wide mouths and spouted rims allow easy pouring and handling during experiments. Laboratory Beakers are fundamental lab apparatus for qualitative and quantitative analysis in chemistry, biology, and industrial research.
