Description
Iron crucible lid with a 48 mm outer diameter is a metal cover intended for laboratory crucibles during heating, ignition, and ashing procedures. The lid helps retain heat, limit spatter, and reduce contamination from airborne particles while solid samples are treated at elevated temperature. Manufactured from iron and weighing 0,022 kg net, it is easy to position with crucible tongs and remains stable on a matching vessel rim. This crucible lid from manufacturer Usbeck is supplied as one piece for routine thermal work in analytical, teaching, and quality-control laboratories. Iron construction offers mechanical robustness for repeated use with burners or laboratory furnaces where a durable metal cover is preferred. The 48 mm outer diameter should be matched to the corresponding crucible opening to ensure even seating and effective coverage. Typical applications include gravimetric analysis, residue on ignition determinations, sample pre-treatment, and educational demonstrations of controlled heating. Within miscellaneous laboratory materials, this simple metalware item supports everyday high-temperature workflows without requiring additional fittings or complex accessories.

Questions about Cover 48 mm D.
What is this article?
Cover 48 mm D. is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Usbeck for laboratory use. It sits in Crucibles, inside Dishes, crucibles & porcelain, in Labware.
A crucible holds a sample in a furnace or over a flame, at temperatures that would soften a borosilicate beaker. Porcelain, platinum and glazed ceramic are different articles. The form, tall or wide, decides how fast a sample dries or ashes.
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.
