Description
Retort stand base plate steel 250 x 160 mm with M10 thread provides a stable foundation for laboratory support stands used in chemistry, biology and physics work. Fabricated from steel with a greatest thickness of 8 mm, the plate is powder-coated for everyday durability and fitted with rubber feet that protect benchtops while reducing slip and vibration. The integrated M10 thread accepts standard support rods, enabling secure assembly of retort stands for clamps, rings and glassware. Its net weight of 2,425 kg supplies solid mass that keeps apparatus steady during heating, titration or filtration procedures. Offered as a single piece from manufacturer Usbeck, this base plate suits teaching laboratories, research benches and industrial quality-control stations that require a robust mechanical platform. Compact outer dimensions of 250 x 160 mm allow placement on crowded work surfaces without sacrificing stability, while the powder-coated finish helps resist typical laboratory wear. Ideal for modular stand systems needing a reliable steel base with threaded mounting.

Questions about Retort Stand Base 250 X 160 mm
What is this article?
Retort Stand Base 250 X 160 mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Usbeck for laboratory use. It sits in Stands, rods & bases, inside Stands, clamps & racks, in Labware.
A retort stand is a base and a rod. The base mass keeps a clamped flask from tipping. Rod diameter decides which bossheads fit. A light base under a heavy condenser is how glassware falls.
A stand, a clamp and a rack hold something still so the hands can do the work. A bosshead locks a clamp to a rod. A test-tube rack keeps tubes upright and in an order the operator can read back. The failure is almost always mechanical: the clamp slips, or the rack does not match the tube diameter. The glass they support is indexed under ISO laboratory glassware.
