Description
Magnetic stirring bars with PTFE coating in an octahedral profile, measuring 13 mm in length and 8 mm in diameter, are compact laboratory stirrers designed for reliable mixing in small vessels. The octahedral geometry supports stable rotation and effective contact on vessel bases that are slightly curved or irregular, helping maintain consistent agitation during routine sample preparation and reaction work. A continuous PTFE coating provides a chemically resistant outer surface suited to everyday laboratory media and cleaning regimes. Supplied as a pack of 30 pieces from manufacturer Labbox, these bars belong to the LBX INSTRUMENTS range and are intended for use with magnetic stirrers in research, quality-control, and teaching laboratories. Net weight of the pack is 0,066 kg. Dimensions of 13 mm length by 8 mm diameter make the set practical for small flasks, beakers, and similar containers where a short octahedral stir bar is preferred. The PTFE-coated construction and octahedral form address common needs for durable, low-maintenance stirring elements in daily wet-chemistry workflows.

Questions about Magnetic stirring bar, octahedral, l 13 x diam. 8 mm, 30 pcs
What is this article?
Magnetic stirring bar, octahedral, l 13 x diam. 8 mm, 30 pcs is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Labbox for laboratory use. It sits in Magnetic stirring bars, inside Stirring, shaking & mixing, in Lab instruments.
A magnetic stirring bar is the magnet coated in PTFE that spins inside a vessel, driven by a stirrer underneath. Length and shape, plain, oval or cross, have to suit the flask. A bar left against a dry glass wall will grind it.
Stirring keeps a mixture uniform or helps a solid dissolve. A magnetic stirrer spins a bar inside a closed vessel. An overhead stirrer drives a shaft when the liquid is viscous or the volume is large. A vortex mixer agitates a tube. A shaker moves a whole rack or a plate. The shape of the impeller and the speed decide whether the liquid turns over or merely spins. The vessels being stirred are indexed under ISO laboratory glassware.
