Description
Pestle 56 with rough surface, size 000, is a laboratory pestle featuring a head diameter of 22 mm and a stated length of 100 mm. Intended for grinding and homogenising solid samples in combination with a matching mortar, it provides a rough working face that aids mechanical sample preparation in analytical chemistry, materials testing and related laboratory routines. Technical data list a grinding surface diameter of 24 mm and a length of 115 mm, supporting consistent contact during crushing and mixing operations. The compact size 000 format suits smaller sample quantities and controlled bench-scale work where precise handling matters. Available in a pack of 20 pieces from manufacturer Haldenwanger, this pestle is a practical tool for laboratories that require reliable mechanical preparation of powders, crystals and other solids before dissolution, weighing or instrumental analysis. Its straightforward geometry allows easy cleaning and repeated use under standard laboratory conditions where ceramic or glass mortar systems are employed for routine sample work-up.

Questions about Pestles 56 unglazed, Size 000, lenght 100mm, Ø of head 22mm
What is this article?
Pestles 56 unglazed, Size 000, lenght 100mm, Ø of head 22mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Haldenwanger 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.
