Glass Beaker Low Form with Spout

Our Pyre Glass Beaker Low Form with Spout are made from 3.3mm borosilicate glass. They include graduation and spout.

What is Borosilicate Glass?

Borosilicate glass is a type of glass with silica and boron trioxide as the main glass-forming constituents. Borosilicate glasses are known for having very low coefficients of thermal expansion, making them more resistant to thermal shock than any other common glass. Such glass is subjected to less thermal stress and can withstand temperature differentials without fracturing of about 165 °C. It is commonly used for the construction of reagent bottles and flasks as well as lighting, electronics and cookware.

DESCRIPTION:

SOURCE: (WIKIPEDIA)

In laboratory equipment, a beaker (also becker or beker) is generally a cylindrical container with a flat bottom.^[1] Most also have a small spout (or “beak”) to aid pouring, as shown in the picture. Beakers are available in a wide range of sizes, from one milliliter up to several liters. A beaker is distinguished from a flask by having straight rather than sloping sides. The exception to this definition is a slightly conical-sided beaker called a Philips beaker. The beaker shape in general drinkware is similar.

Beakers are commonly made of glass (today usually borosilicate glass^[2]), but can also be in metal (such as stainless steel or aluminum) or certain plastics (notably polythene, polypropylene, PTFE). A common use for polypropylene beakers is gamma spectral analysis of liquid and solid samples.
