Description
Aluminium support rod without thread, length 600 mm and diameter 12 mm, is a laboratory stand component for building retort stands and apparatus frameworks. The smooth, unthreaded shaft is intended for use with bosses, clamps and connectors that grip the rod surface, giving flexible height and orientation when assembling glassware, sensors or other lab equipment. Manufactured from aluminium, the rod combines low mass with adequate rigidity for typical bench setups; the stated weight is 185,0 g. Dimensional control of the 600 mm length and 12 mm diameter supports interchangeability with common laboratory hardware. Available as a single piece from manufacturer Bochem, this support rod suits teaching laboratories, research benches and quality-control stations where modular scaffolding is needed. It can be combined with bases, clamps and multi-neck fittings to create stable, reconfigurable stands for heating, stirring, titration or sample handling. The absence of a thread simplifies positioning along the full shaft length and reduces wear at clamp contact points. Consistent geometry helps ensure secure clamping and repeatable apparatus layouts across everyday laboratory workflows.

Questions about Rod alu, without winding, LxD=600x12mm
What is this article?
Rod alu, without winding, LxD=600x12mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Bochem for laboratory use. It sits in Stands, rods & bases, inside Stands, clamps & racks, in Labware.
A retort stand is a base and a rod. The base mass keeps a clamped flask from tipping. Rod diameter decides which bossheads fit. A light base under a heavy condenser is how glassware falls.
A stand, a clamp and a rack hold something still so the hands can do the work. A bosshead locks a clamp to a rod. A test-tube rack keeps tubes upright and in an order the operator can read back. The failure is almost always mechanical: the clamp slips, or the rack does not match the tube diameter. The glass they support is indexed under ISO laboratory glassware.
