Description
Measuring cylinder with hexagonal base, graduated, PMP, Class B, 500 ml is a clear plastic volumetric cylinder intended for everyday volume measurement and mixing in the laboratory. It is made from polymethylpentene (PMP/TPX®), which provides higher transparency, better chemical resistance and improved heat tolerance compared with polypropylene, and it can be autoclaved. Raised graduation marks are simple to read, supporting reliable filling and transfer of aqueous and many organic solutions. The hexagonal base gives a stable footprint on the workbench and helps prevent roll-away or tipping during use. Conforming to ISO 6706 as a Class B instrument and supplied without a certificate, this cylinder from manufacturer Labbox is well suited to routine preparative tasks, buffer and media make-up, and teaching laboratories. Nominal volume is 0,5 l with a net weight of 0,011 kg; the single-piece pack offers a lightweight, shatter-resistant alternative to glass for general laboratory workflows where Class B accuracy is sufficient.

Questions about Measuring cylinder hexagonal base, PMP, class B, 500 ml
What is this article?
Measuring cylinder hexagonal base, PMP, class B, 500 ml is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Labbox for laboratory use. It sits in Measuring cylinders, inside Volumetric glassware, in Labware.
A measuring cylinder is the tall graduated vessel for a volume that does not need volumetric-flask accuracy. Class A and class B differ in tolerance. Reading the bottom of the meniscus, at eye level, is part of using it.
Volumetric glassware is glass that has been calibrated to contain or to deliver one stated volume at a reference temperature. That calibration is the whole point. Class A and class AS have a tighter tolerance than class B. A volumetric flask contains. A pipette and a burette deliver. A measuring cylinder is the coarser reading, used when the volume is not the result. The classes sit under ISO laboratory glassware. The chain back to the unit of volume is the work of the BIPM and of NIST.
