Description
Rod without thread, 600 x 12 mm, galvanised is a straight laboratory support rod fabricated from steel with a protective galvanised finish. Measuring 600 mm in length and 12 mm in diameter, it provides a stable vertical or horizontal mounting element for clamps, bosses and other retort-stand accessories commonly used in chemistry and physics setups. The galvanised surface offers corrosion resistance under normal laboratory humidity and handling conditions, extending service life compared with untreated steel. With a net weight of 0,520 kg the rod remains rigid yet manageable when assembled into frameworks for holding glassware, sensors or reaction vessels. Supplied as a single piece from manufacturer Usbeck, it is intended for use with compatible bosses and clamps on laboratory stands. The absence of threading allows free positioning along its length, making it versatile for custom apparatus configurations in teaching, research and routine experimental work. Its straightforward cylindrical geometry ensures compatibility with standard laboratory hardware while delivering reliable mechanical support.

Questions about Rod Zinc Plated 600 X 12 mm
What is this article?
Rod Zinc Plated 600 X 12 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.
