Description
Cover glass forceps 115 mm, straight, are specialised laboratory tweezers for safe handling of fragile cover glasses during microscopy sample preparation. Fabricated from stainless steel, they combine rigidity with corrosion resistance suited to routine wet-lab and microscopy workflows. The overall length of 115 mm offers compact control close to the slide, while the straight profile supports linear approach and placement of thin glass coverslips without unnecessary lateral offset. Supplied as a pack of 5 pc(s), the set is practical for multi-user microscopy rooms, teaching laboratories and shared preparation benches. These cover glass forceps from manufacturer RSG help reduce the risk of chipping or fingerprinting delicate glass during mounting and demounting steps. Stainless steel construction allows cleaning according to standard laboratory procedures between uses. Their dedicated cover-glass design makes them a focused alternative to general-purpose tweezers when preparing permanent or temporary mounts for light microscopy. Originating from Germany, they fit everyday histology, cytology and materials microscopy tasks where precise, controlled cover-slip handling is essential for clear optical results and reproducible slide quality.
This article is part of Microscope slides & cover glasses, in Microscopy & histology.

Questions about Cover glass tweezers,straight, 115mm
What is this article?
Cover glass tweezers,straight, 115mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes RSG for laboratory use. It sits in Microscope slides & cover glasses, inside Microscopy & histology, in Lab instruments.
A slide is the glass a specimen sits on. A cover glass is the thin sheet over it, of a thickness the objective was designed for. A cover glass of the wrong thickness softens the image. Charged and plain slides hold sections differently.
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.
