Description
Specimen jars with an outer diameter of 162 mm and a height of 253 mm are laboratory glassware for the storage, preservation and display of biological specimens and organ preparations. Made from DURAN® glass, each jar offers an approximate capacity of 3 475 ml and is fitted with a ground-in knob lid for a secure, repeatable seal. The clear cylindrical body supports visual inspection of contents while providing the chemical and thermal resistance associated with DURAN® material. These jars suit pathology departments, anatomical teaching collections, research laboratories and museum displays where reliable containment and visibility are required. Supplied as a single unit from manufacturer Witeg, the jar has a net weight of 2,555 kg. The ground knob lid allows convenient access without sacrificing closure integrity during long-term storage. This medium-capacity format is practical for organ and specimen work that needs a stable, transparent vessel of defined dimensions in professional laboratory environments.

Questions about Specimen jars, 3475 ml, O.Ø 162 mm, hei
What is this article?
Specimen jars, 3475 ml, O.Ø 162 mm, hei is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Witeg for laboratory use. It sits in Sample containers & jars, inside Bottles & containers, in Labware.
A sample container or jar is the vessel the sample travels in, with a closure that survives the trip. The volume and the liner decide whether the sample that arrives is the sample that was taken.
A laboratory bottle is a closed container with a stated volume and a neck that takes a cap, a stopper or a dispenser. Borosilicate glass is the choice when the liquid is a solvent, or when the bottle will be heated or autoclaved. Polyethylene and polypropylene are the choice when the bottle must not shatter, or when hydrofluoric acid would attack glass. A narrow mouth pours. A wide mouth is for powders and for reaching the bottom. Laboratory ware of this kind is indexed under ISO laboratory glassware. Traceable volume sits with the BIPM and NIST Physical Measurement.
