Description
BOLA dumbbell magnetic stirring bars with PTFE coating are specialised laboratory stirrers built for reliable mixing where a dumbbell geometry improves contact and guidance. Overall length is approximately 37 mm, and the sliding discs measure about 20 mm in diameter, creating the characteristic hantel-style profile that helps the bar track smoothly under magnetic drive. An Alnico 5 magnetic core is fully encapsulated in polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), giving universal chemical resistance for demanding wet-chemistry environments involving acids, bases and organic solvents. The inert PTFE overcoat minimises adhesion of residues and protects the magnet during routine laboratory use. Supplied in a pack of three pieces from manufacturer Bohlender, these dumbbell bars are suited to vessels in which the disc ends stabilise rotation and maintain consistent coupling to the drive magnet. Net weight is 0,013 kg. The combination of PTFE durability, Alnico 5 magnetism and the defined dumbbell dimensions supports reproducible stirring performance in research, quality-control and preparative workflows that require robust, chemically resistant magnetic stir bars.

Questions about BOLA Dumbbell-Shaped Magnetic Stirring Bars, L 37 mm PTFE-coated
What is this article?
BOLA Dumbbell-Shaped Magnetic Stirring Bars, L 37 mm PTFE-coated is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Bohlender 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.
