Description
Magnetic stirring bar, cylindrical, PTFE coated, approx. 20 x 6 mm is a robust laboratory stirring element designed for effective magnetic mixing of larger liquid volumes. The cylindrical shape together with a seamless PTFE coating guarantees smooth, low-friction rotation and excellent resistance to a broad spectrum of chemicals encountered in research and industrial laboratories. Approximate dimensions of 20 x 6 mm provide greater surface area and torque, making the bar well suited to beakers, flasks and medium-sized reaction vessels used in organic synthesis, sample preparation and process development. The chemically inert PTFE exterior protects the internal magnet, minimises cross-contamination and allows simple rinsing or autoclaving between runs. Supplied as one piece, this stirring bar from manufacturer Hecht couples directly to standard magnetic stirrer drives. Its stable cylindrical geometry promotes consistent centring and thorough homogenisation even with moderately viscous solutions. Laboratories value the combination of mechanical durability and chemical inertness for daily workflows ranging from buffer preparation to dissolution testing. The slightly larger diameter enhances coupling strength while remaining fully compatible with common laboratory glassware.

Questions about Magnetic stirring bars, cylindrical, PTFE coated ca. 20 x 6 mm
What is this article?
Magnetic stirring bars, cylindrical, PTFE coated ca. 20 x 6 mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Hecht 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.
