Description
Crucible tongs fabricated from 18/10 stainless steel in a heavy-duty design measure 220 mm in length and enable secure handling of crucibles and similar laboratory vessels under thermal load. An electrolytically polished finish yields a smooth, corrosion-resistant surface that simplifies cleaning after use with chemical residues or aggressive media. At a weight of 136,0 g the tongs offer a stable yet manageable balance for daily laboratory tasks. The robust construction supports reliable gripping during heating, cooling and transfer operations typical of analytical chemistry, materials testing and sample preparation. Offered as a single unit from manufacturer Bochem, the tool integrates readily into standard laboratory utensil sets. Stainless steel 18/10 composition provides long service life even with frequent exposure to elevated temperatures. These tongs are particularly useful wherever precise and safe manipulation of hot containers is essential for maintaining sample integrity and operator safety.

Questions about Crucible tong 18/10 steel, rugged type, L=220mm
What is this article?
Crucible tong 18/10 steel, rugged type, L=220mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Bochem for laboratory use. It sits in Crucibles, inside Dishes, crucibles & porcelain, in Labware.
A crucible holds a sample in a furnace or over a flame, at temperatures that would soften a borosilicate beaker. Porcelain, platinum and glazed ceramic are different articles. The form, tall or wide, decides how fast a sample dries or ashes.
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.
