Description
Cover glasses 20 mm are precision optical accessories designed as spare parts for tubes handling small sample volumes. With a diameter of 20 mm, these cover glasses provide a clear, flat optical surface that protects and contains limited-quantity specimens during refractive-index or related optical measurements. They serve as replacement components for dedicated sample tubes, ensuring continued instrument performance when original covers become damaged or worn. The set is supplied as 1.0 set with a net weight of 0,08 kg and gross weight of 0,1 kg. Packaging dimensions are approximately 0,22 m depth, 0,15 m width and 0,04 m height. Originating from Great Britain, these cover glasses from manufacturer Bellingham + Stanley are intended for laboratory environments that rely on accurate optical path integrity for low-volume samples. Their standardised 20 mm format matches the corresponding tube geometry, supporting straightforward replacement and consistent measurement conditions in quality-control, research and analytical applications.
This article belongs on Microscope slides & cover glasses, in Microscopy & histology.

Questions about COVER GLASS 20MM
What is this article?
COVER GLASS 20MM is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Bellingham + Stanley for laboratory use. It sits in Microscope slides & cover glasses, inside Microscopy & histology, in Lab instruments.
A slide is the glass a specimen sits on. A cover glass is the thin sheet over it, of a thickness the objective was designed for. A cover glass of the wrong thickness softens the image. Charged and plain slides hold sections differently.
A light microscope forms an image with glass lenses and transmitted or reflected light. A stereo microscope is the lower-magnification instrument for dissecting and for looking at a surface. Fluorescence needs a light source and filters matched to the dye. Histology is the preparation that makes a tissue readable: fixation, a cassette, a section, a stain. The objective's magnification and numerical aperture decide the resolution. The slide and the cover glass decide whether the section sits in the focal plane. Stains and dyes as substances are identified on PubChem. Papers on the methods are on PubMed.
