Product Knowledge
Background, typical uses and selection points for this product. We can send model drawings, technical data and samples to support your evaluation.
The beaker is the most basic and widely used piece of lab glass: a straight-sided cylinder with a flat base, a pouring spout and a beaded rim. The low Griffin form balances stability with easy pouring. Its printed scale lets you judge volumes roughly, typically to about ±5%, so a beaker is used where convenience matters more than accuracy.
In borosilicate 3.3 it takes direct heating and thermal shock, making it the default open vessel for mixing, dissolving, heating and transferring.
Beakers are used for mixing and dissolving, heating and boiling, liquid transfer and sample preparation, and as receivers under burettes during titration. Teaching labs buy them by the case in nested size sets; QC, analytical and research labs replace them steadily as everyday working glass. A watch glass or film makes a quick loose cover when contents need protecting from dust or splashes.
Each beaker is a straight-sided borosilicate 3.3 cylinder with a uniform beaded rim for strength and a formed spout for drip-free pouring. The flat base sits stably on a hotplate, and an even wall thickness supports consistent heating. White or colored enamel graduations and a marking spot are fired onto the side. Tall-form beakers are also available for titration and work that needs less surface area.
Heat beakers gradually and evenly, and never heat a cracked or empty beaker. Move hot beakers with tongs and set them on a heat-resistant surface. The scale is approximate; for accurate measurement, use a graduated cylinder, volumetric flask or pipette and transfer. Chipped rims or spouts are a sign the beaker should be retired, as they concentrate stress during heating.
We form the beakers from borosilicate 3.3, shape the spout and rim, anneal them and then screen-print and fire the enamel scale. Rim and spout quality, wall evenness and scale legibility are checked in production. We can supply low- or tall-form sets, custom scale colors, printed logos and nested packing in counts for teaching-lab and distributor orders. Ask us for a sample set across your size range.
Customization
We specify the container, closure, decoration and transit packing as one package, so every part fits and arrives ready for your filling line.
Choose from standard sizes or request a custom capacity. We supply drawings with tolerances, label panel dimensions and nominal and brimful capacity.
We match caps, liners, pumps, droppers and stoppers to the neck finish and check the seal against your contents and filling process.
Flint, amber and colored glass, with frosting, spray coating, screen printing, hot stamping or labels. Material documentation is available on request.
Partitioned cartons, layer pads or bulk pallets, with shipping marks and pallet patterns planned for your route and warehouse.
Applications
Typical markets and uses. Tell us your contents, filling process and storage conditions and we will recommend the right model and components.
We confirm availability of the standard model, and review any changes to size, color, decoration or tooling for feasibility and lead time.
We send samples and specification sheets so you can check dimensions, component fit and finish before you place the order.
Your quotation covers packing design, shipping route, Incoterms and export documents, so landed cost is clear from the start.
