Description
Agate mortar 40 x 35 mm, approx. 8 ml, 20 mm high, with pestle is a compact laboratory grinding set for manual pulverisation and homogenisation of solid samples. Manufactured from agate, it provides an outer diameter of 40 mm, an inner diameter of 35 mm and a height of 20 mm, yielding an approximate working capacity of 8 ml. The matching pestle is included to ensure effective grinding action on the hard, smooth agate surface. This non-metallic mortar is suited to sample preparation tasks where abrasion resistance and minimal contamination are required. The small volume supports work with limited or precious material quantities in analytical and research laboratories. Supplied as a complete unit from manufacturer IDL GmbH, the set integrates readily into routine grinding workflows for powders, crystals and similar solids. Agate construction delivers mechanical durability together with chemical inertness for everyday laboratory use. Precise dimensional control of the 40 x 35 mm format assists reproducible preparation steps prior to further analysis or testing.

Questions about Agate mortar 40 x 35 mm, ca. 8 ml, 20 mm height, with pestle
What is this article?
Agate mortar 40 x 35 mm, ca. 8 ml, 20 mm height, with pestle is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes IDL GmbH for laboratory use. It sits in Mortars & pestles, inside Dishes, crucibles & porcelain, in Labware.
A mortar and pestle grind a solid by hand. Porcelain is the ordinary laboratory set. Agate and glass are chosen when the sample must not pick up porcelain dust. The unglazed grinding surface, not the glossy outside, does the work.
A dish is an open vessel for drying, evaporating or holding a solid. Porcelain and glazed ceramic take a higher temperature than borosilicate glass, which is why a crucible, not a beaker, goes into a furnace. A watch glass covers, or holds a small amount for drying. A mortar is for grinding. The temperature and the chemical, not the shape alone, choose the material. Laboratory ware of this family is listed under ISO laboratory ware.
