Description
Support rods Ø 12 mm, length 500 mm are laboratory stand components for assembling stable frameworks on the bench. Made of steel and provided with an M10 thread, each rod forms a rigid vertical or horizontal element for clamps, bosses and other retort-stand accessories used in chemistry, biology and analytical work. The 12 mm diameter and 500 mm length give a practical working height for many standard setups while remaining compact enough for crowded fume hoods or teaching benches. Steel construction supplies the mechanical strength needed to hold glassware, sensors and small apparatus securely during routine experiments and sample preparation. Supplied as one piece with a net weight of 0,446 kg, the rod fits existing stand systems that accept M10 threaded fittings. These support rods from manufacturer Witeg suit research laboratories, quality-control environments and educational facilities that need durable, interchangeable stand hardware. Consistent diameter and straightforward geometry support reliable clamping and alignment in multi-rod assemblies for everyday laboratory organisation.

Questions about Rod for stand base Ø 12 mm
What is this article?
Rod for stand base Ø 12 mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Witeg 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.
