Description
RSME 176 is a reactor block designed for 500 ml round-bottom flasks, supporting controlled heating and reaction work in the laboratory. The block provides a stable, form-fitting seat for the flask so thermal contact remains consistent during stirring, reflux, or multi-step synthesis setups. It suits routine organic and inorganic preparations where a dedicated 500 ml round-bottom geometry is required and helps keep the vessel securely positioned on the heating platform. Compact and purpose-built, the accessory integrates easily into existing hotplate or reactor stations without complex adaptation. Supplied as a single unit from manufacturer Phoenix Instrument, the RSME 176 is intended for general laboratory use in research, teaching, and quality-control environments that rely on standard glassware formats. Clear model identification simplifies reordering and inventory matching across multi-user labs. Choose this reactor block when you need a straightforward, flask-specific interface for 500 ml round-bottom vessels in everyday reaction workflows.

Questions about RSME 176
What is this article?
RSME 176 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Phoenix Instrument for laboratory use. It sits in Hot plates & heating blocks, inside Heating, drying & cooling, in Lab instruments.
A hot plate heats a flat-bottom vessel from below, often with stirring. A heating block holds tubes in machined holes so each tube sees the same temperature. The block's hole diameter has to match the tube, or the heat never arrives.
Temperature equipment either holds a set point or drives a sample toward one. An oven dries. A furnace reaches the temperatures of ashing and melting. A bath surrounds a vessel with water or oil. A circulator moves that fluid. An incubator holds the mild warmth of a culture. An autoclave uses steam under pressure to sterilise. The number that matters is the temperature the article actually reaches, not the number painted on the dial. Temperature is part of the international system kept by the BIPM and compared by EURAMET.
