Description
Clamp with smooth gripping surface is a fine laboratory holding instrument intended for careful positioning of small specimens and components in microscopy, histology, and specialised bench procedures. It provides a jaw width of 6,0 mm and a length of 180 mm, combining a narrow grip with extended reach for work in tight or structured setups. Smooth gripping surfaces support gentle contact, helping reduce the risk of surface damage on sensitive materials during transfer or adjustment. Supplied as 1 pc with a weight of 0,052 kg, the clamp remains easy to handle during prolonged laboratory sessions. Available from manufacturer Hammacher, it is classified among special instruments for microscopy and histology environments where defined jaw geometry and controlled grip are essential. The 6,0 mm jaw width is suited to slender or finely dimensioned objects, while the 180 mm length improves access across the working area. An appropriate choice for research, preparation, and teaching labs that need a smooth-jaw clamp for precise, low-impact holding tasks.
This article belongs on Cold light sources & lighting, in Microscopy & histology.

Questions about Clamp, smooth gripping surface, jaw width 6.0 mm, L 180 mm, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
Clamp, smooth gripping surface, jaw width 6.0 mm, L 180 mm, 1 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Hammacher for laboratory use. It sits in Cold light sources & lighting, inside Microscopy & histology, in Lab instruments.
A cold light keeps the heat of the lamp away from a living or a melting specimen, usually by a fibre light guide. It is the illuminator for a stereo microscope. Colour temperature matters when the image is photographed. A hot lamp over a dissection dries the sample.
A light microscope forms an image with glass lenses and transmitted or reflected light. A stereo microscope is the lower-magnification instrument for dissecting and for looking at a surface. Fluorescence needs a light source and filters matched to the dye. Histology is the preparation that makes a tissue readable: fixation, a cassette, a section, a stain. The objective's magnification and numerical aperture decide the resolution. The slide and the cover glass decide whether the section sits in the focal plane. Stains and dyes as substances are identified on PubChem. Papers on the methods are on PubMed.
