Description
Cover glasses measuring 26 × 21 mm with thickness No. 1 of 0,13–0,16 mm are precision glass coverslips intended for microscope slide preparation and specimen protection. Each plastic grip box holds 100 pieces and ten boxes are supplied per carton, giving a total pack size of 1000 cover glasses ready for laboratory use. These cover glasses from manufacturer Hecht provide consistent dimensions and the standard No. 1 thickness range preferred for many light-microscopy protocols in histology, cytology and general research. The plastic grip boxes protect the fragile glass during storage and transport while allowing convenient handling and stacking on the bench. Rectangular format of 26 mm by 21 mm ensures compatibility with common microscope slides. Quantity pricing remains valid for assorted size orders, supporting flexible stocking across different formats. The practical packaging configuration helps laboratories maintain efficient workflows and reduces breakage risk compared with loose bulk glass. Suitable for routine diagnostic and scientific sample preparation where reliable optical coverslips are required.

Questions about Cover glasses in plastic boxes of 100 pieces (10 boxes in a carton), thickness 1
What is this article?
Cover glasses in plastic boxes of 100 pieces (10 boxes in a carton), thickness 1 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Hecht for laboratory use. It sits in Microscope slides & cover glasses, inside Microscopy & histology, in Lab instruments.
A slide is the glass a specimen sits on. A cover glass is the thin sheet over it, of a thickness the objective was designed for. A cover glass of the wrong thickness softens the image. Charged and plain slides hold sections differently.
A light microscope forms an image with glass lenses and transmitted or reflected light. A stereo microscope is the lower-magnification instrument for dissecting and for looking at a surface. Fluorescence needs a light source and filters matched to the dye. Histology is the preparation that makes a tissue readable: fixation, a cassette, a section, a stain. The objective's magnification and numerical aperture decide the resolution. The slide and the cover glass decide whether the section sits in the focal plane. Stains and dyes as substances are identified on PubChem. Papers on the methods are on PubMed.
