Description
KPG stirring shaft WG 16 is a borosilicate glass stirrer engineered for flat-flange reaction vessels of 4000 ml. Featuring a nominal diameter of 16 mm and an overall length of 480 mm, it carries a propeller stirring blade matched to a neck inner diameter of 145 mm. The running surface is ground and polished and equipped with a grease cup; the blade remains interchangeable for adaptable laboratory configurations. Made from borosilicate glass 3.3, the shaft delivers the chemical resistance and dimensional stability expected in synthetic and preparative chemistry. Packaged as a single piece with a net weight of 0,104 kg, it fits standard KPG stirring assemblies used with medium-to-large flat-flange reactors. This Rettberg component supports consistent mixing performance where glass inertness and a propeller flow pattern are preferred. Suitable for organic reactions, crystallization and general process applications that rely on 4000 ml flat-flange glass reaction vessels and a chemically non-reactive stirrer shaft.

Questions about KPG-stirring shaft, WG 16, lenght 480 mm, for reaction vessels 4000 ml,
What is this article?
KPG-stirring shaft, WG 16, lenght 480 mm, for reaction vessels 4000 ml, is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Rettberg for laboratory use. It sits in Stirring shafts, propellers & impellers, inside Stirring, shaking & mixing, in Lab instruments.
A shaft, a propeller or an impeller is the wetted end of an overhead stirrer. The diameter and the pitch decide whether the liquid turns over. The material, stainless steel or PTFE, decides what the liquid may be. The chuck size has to match the stirrer.
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.
