Description
Stirring shaft guard Hei-TORQUE Core is a protective sleeve manufactured from PMMA that shields the rotating shaft of Hei-TORQUE Core overhead stirrers during laboratory operation. Supplied complete with an adapter set, the guard is height-adjustable from approximately 187 mm to 312 mm, allowing it to accommodate a wide range of vessel depths and shaft lengths. The transparent PMMA construction provides clear visual access to the stirring process while reducing the risk of accidental contact with moving parts. Produced by manufacturer Heidolph, this accessory enhances operator safety in chemistry, pharmaceutical and life-science laboratories without impairing stirring performance. The compact design (packaging dimensions 0,22 m × 0,08 m × 0,05 m) and low net weight of 0,210 kg make installation and storage straightforward. Ideal for routine and research applications where open shafts must be enclosed, the guard integrates quickly via the included adapters and remains securely positioned throughout extended runs. Delivered as a single complete unit ready for immediate use on compatible Hei-TORQUE Core drives.

Questions about Shaft guard Hei-TORQUE Core incl. adapter
What is this article?
Shaft guard Hei-TORQUE Core incl. adapter is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Heidolph for laboratory use. It sits in Overhead stirrers, inside Stirring, shaking & mixing, in Lab instruments.
An overhead stirrer drives a shaft from above, for volumes and viscosities a magnetic bar cannot move. Torque and speed range are the ratings. The chuck and the stand are part of using it. A high-speed disperser is a different head.
Stirring keeps a mixture uniform or helps a solid dissolve. A magnetic stirrer spins a bar inside a closed vessel. An overhead stirrer drives a shaft when the liquid is viscous or the volume is large. A vortex mixer agitates a tube. A shaker moves a whole rack or a plate. The shape of the impeller and the speed decide whether the liquid turns over or merely spins. The vessels being stirred are indexed under ISO laboratory glassware.
