Description
Crucible tongs 18/10 steel with plastic handle, length 220 mm are essential laboratory instruments for securely gripping and transferring crucibles, evaporating dishes and other hot vessels during heating procedures. Constructed from durable 18/10 stainless steel, the tongs deliver reliable corrosion resistance and mechanical strength suitable for routine laboratory environments. An integrated plastic handle provides a comfortable, non-slip grip and helps limit heat conduction to the user’s hand, supporting safe operation up to a maximum temperature of 145 °C. Measuring 220 mm in length and weighing 76,0 g, the tool offers a practical balance of reach and control for precise sample handling. These crucible tongs from manufacturer Bochem are well suited to analytical chemistry, materials testing and educational laboratory settings where controlled manipulation of heated containers is required. The stainless-steel construction withstands repeated use while the plastic grip enhances ergonomics during extended work sessions. Supplied as a single piece, the tongs integrate easily into standard laboratory workflows involving thermal processes and sample preparation.

Questions about Crucible tong 18/10 steel, w. plastic, handle, L=220mm
What is this article?
Crucible tong 18/10 steel, w. plastic, handle, L=220mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Bochem 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.
