Description
Agate pestle, Premium Line, is a laboratory grinding tool intended for use with matching agate mortars in sample preparation. With a height of 125 mm, this pestle is produced from very hard, abrasion-resistant agate that offers a hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale and 83 on the Rockwell scale (45N). Surfaces are polished to support smooth, controlled comminution of solids and powders while limiting unwanted wear during repeated laboratory use. The Premium Line design from manufacturer Labbox is aimed at analytical, mineralogical and general research applications where chemical inertness and mechanical durability of the grinding surface are important. Net weight is 0,150 kg. Catalogue dimensions for related agate grinding ware are guide values and may show process-related variation. Supplied as a single pestle unit for laboratories that need a replacement or complementary agate grinding element.
This article is part of Mortars & pestles, in Dishes, crucibles & porcelain.

Questions about Agate pestle, Premium Line, h 125 mm
What is this article?
Agate pestle, Premium Line, h 125 mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Labbox for laboratory use. It sits in Mortars & pestles, inside Dishes, crucibles & porcelain, in Labware.
A mortar and pestle grind a solid by hand. Porcelain is the ordinary laboratory set. Agate and glass are chosen when the sample must not pick up porcelain dust. The unglazed grinding surface, not the glossy outside, does the work.
A dish is an open vessel for drying, evaporating or holding a solid. Porcelain and glazed ceramic take a higher temperature than borosilicate glass, which is why a crucible, not a beaker, goes into a furnace. A watch glass covers, or holds a small amount for drying. A mortar is for grinding. The temperature and the chemical, not the shape alone, choose the material. Laboratory ware of this family is listed under ISO laboratory ware.
