Description
IKAFLON 38 cross magnetic stirring bar is a cross-shaped laboratory stirrer measuring 38 x 38 mm, designed for stable and quiet mixing even at elevated rotational speeds. The cross form creates deep vortices that promote fast and efficient blending of liquid samples. Performance remains effective at low speeds, which is advantageous for biological applications requiring controlled, gentle agitation. By turning on the vessel bottom the bar helps reduce sedimentation of suspended material. Its PTFE coating is chemically inert and withstands aggressive laboratory chemicals. Supplied in a pack of 5 pieces from manufacturer IKA, the IKAFLON 38 cross is intended for routine use on magnetic stirrers across chemistry and life-science laboratories. The 38 mm by 38 mm dimensions provide a robust profile suitable for medium to larger vessels where thorough, reproducible mixing is required throughout experimental and preparative work.
This article is part of Magnetic stirring bars, in Stirring, shaking & mixing.

Questions about IKAFLON 38 cross, Magnetic stirring bar, cross, 38 x 38 mm
What is this article?
IKAFLON 38 cross, Magnetic stirring bar, cross, 38 x 38 mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes IKA 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.
