Fisherbrand PTFE Test Tubes, Round Bottom with Lip

Fisherbrand PTFE Test Tubes, Round Bottom with Lip

Description

Fisherbrand PTFE Test Tubes are designed for demanding laboratory applications requiring exceptional chemical resistance and thermal stability. These round-bottom tubes are used for the containment, mixing, and heating of aggressive reagents that would otherwise degrade standard glass or plastic labware. The inert nature of the PTFE material ensures minimal sample contamination and prevents the contents from adhering to the vessel walls, facilitating complete sample recovery.

Key Features

• Manufactured from high-quality PTFE for superior resistance to almost all laboratory chemicals and solvents.
• Features a sturdy round-bottom design with a reinforced lip to assist with secure handling and pouring.
• Non-stick surface properties prevent sample carryover and simplify the cleaning process.
• Maintains structural integrity across a broad temperature range, suitable for both cryogenic and high-heat applications.

Applications

• Handling of corrosive acids, bases, and organic solvents.
• High-temperature chemical reactions and sample digestion.
• Cryogenic storage and processing of sensitive biological or chemical materials.
• Trace metal analysis where glass leaching must be avoided.

Specifications

• Material: Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)
• Format: Round bottom with lip
• Chemical Resistance: Inert to most chemicals and solvents
• Surface Property: Non-stick, hydrophobic

Disclaimer

Users should ensure that heating is performed evenly and avoid direct contact with concentrated heat sources to prevent deformation.
