Description
Tripod, galvanised steel, 160 x 230 mm is a laboratory support stand for elevating glassware and heating vessels above burners or hot plates. It offers an inner diameter of 160 mm and a working height of 230 mm, giving a stable platform for beakers, flasks and similar apparatus in teaching and routine wet-chemistry work. The frame is made from galvanised steel; the zinc coating provides temporary corrosion protection under normal bench conditions. Direct contact with an open flame can cause the galvanisation to flake, so a stainless steel alternative is advisable where continuous flame exposure is expected. Net weight is 0,395 kg, and the item is supplied as one piece. This compact tripod from manufacturer Usbeck suits school laboratories, prep rooms and analytical benches that need a simple, durable support without complex assembly. Its dimensions balance footprint and clearance for standard lab glassware while remaining easy to store and reposition between experiments.

Questions about Tripod Stand 160 X 230 mm Height
What is this article?
Tripod Stand 160 X 230 mm Height is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Usbeck 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.
