The mortar features a hexagonal outer form and is produced from very hard, abrasion-resistant agate. Hardness reaches 7 on the Mohs scale and 83 on the Rockwell scale (45N). Both inner and outer surfaces are polished, which aids controlled grinding and simple cleaning after use. The product is supplied as a complete mortar-and-pestle set; stated catalogue dimensions are approximate guide values that can vary due to the manufacturing process. Net weight is 0,575 kg. This Premium Line agate mortar with matching pestle from manufacturer Labbox supports laboratory pulverising and homogenising tasks where a hard, wear-resistant stone surface is preferred. It is suited to sample preparation in analytical and research settings that require polished agate contact areas and a stable hexagonal exterior profile for secure handling on the bench.

Questions about Agate mortar with pestle, Premium Line, Øext 100 mm, Øint 87 mm, h 44 mm
What is this article?
Agate mortar with pestle, Premium Line, Øext 100 mm, Øint 87 mm, h 44 mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Labbox for laboratory use. It sits in Mortars & pestles, inside Dishes, crucibles & porcelain, in Labware.
A mortar and pestle grind a solid by hand. Porcelain is the ordinary laboratory set. Agate and glass are chosen when the sample must not pick up porcelain dust. The unglazed grinding surface, not the glossy outside, does the work.
A dish is an open vessel for drying, evaporating or holding a solid. Porcelain and glazed ceramic take a higher temperature than borosilicate glass, which is why a crucible, not a beaker, goes into a furnace. A watch glass covers, or holds a small amount for drying. A mortar is for grinding. The temperature and the chemical, not the shape alone, choose the material. Laboratory ware of this family is listed under ISO laboratory ware.
