Description
Crucible tongs 220 mm, polished are laboratory handling instruments for gripping, lifting and transferring crucibles during heating, ashing and related analytical work. The 220 mm overall length offers a balanced mid-range reach for use at furnaces, hot plates and flame sources, supporting steady control of the vessel while distancing the hand from intense heat. A polished surface finish facilitates routine cleaning and visual checks after work with ceramic or metal crucibles. Delivered as a single piece, the tongs serve chemistry, materials and teaching laboratories that move samples through thermal cycles and gravimetric preparation. Manufactured by RSG, this variant sits within the standard crucible-tong category employed for positioning vessels before ignition, during cooling and when returning them to the bench. The 220 mm format bridges compact and longer tongs, suiting common crucible sizes and moderately deep heating chambers. Polished crucible tongs remain fundamental benchtop accessories wherever dependable mechanical transfer of hot vessels is required in daily laboratory workflows.
This article is part of Crucibles, in Dishes, crucibles & porcelain.

Questions about Crucible tong, double curved, 220mm
What is this article?
Crucible tong, double curved, 220mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes RSG 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.
