Description
Cover glasses 40 × 24 mm with thickness grade 1 are glass coverslips used to protect and flatten specimens on microscope slides. They arrive in plastic grip boxes holding 50 pieces each, with 20 boxes per carton, for a total of 1000 pieces per pack. This packaging format supports clean handling, clear stock control and reduced breakage risk in busy laboratory environments. The 40 mm by 24 mm format matches common larger slide areas employed in histology, cytology, pathology and routine microscopy. Tiered pricing also applies to assorted orders, giving flexibility when laboratories stock several sizes together. Offered by manufacturer Hecht, these cover glasses serve as a reliable everyday consumable for diagnostic, research and teaching laboratories. The organised carton layout simplifies storage and bench-side access compared with loose glass. Ideal for facilities that require consistent dimensions, bulk quantities and practical plastic grip packaging for daily sample preparation work.

Questions about Cover glasses in plastic boxes of 50 pieces (20 boxes in a carton), thickness 1
What is this article?
Cover glasses in plastic boxes of 50 pieces (20 boxes in a carton), thickness 1 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Hecht 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.
