Description
Polygon magnetic stirring bar PTFE 6 x 10 mm is a specialised laboratory accessory engineered for effective mixing of liquids in small vessels. The distinctive polygonal geometry generates enhanced turbulence and improved agitation efficiency compared with conventional cylindrical designs, making it particularly suitable for viscous media or applications requiring thorough homogenisation. Manufactured from chemically inert polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), the bar exhibits outstanding resistance to aggressive acids, bases, solvents and other laboratory reagents while fully encapsulating the internal magnet to prevent corrosion or sample contamination. With a diameter of 6 mm and length of 10 mm, this compact stir bar fits readily into vials, test tubes, micro-reactors and other restricted-volume containers. Supplied in practical packs of 10 pieces from manufacturer Vitlab, the bars deliver consistent performance on standard magnetic stirrers across chemistry, biochemistry, pharmaceutical and analytical workflows. The robust PTFE construction ensures long service life and easy cleaning, supporting reproducible results in routine and research environments where reliable, contamination-free stirring is essential.

Questions about Magnetic stirring-bar, PTFE, POLYGON, 6 x 10 mm
What is this article?
Magnetic stirring-bar, PTFE, POLYGON, 6 x 10 mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Vitlab 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.
