Description
Measuring cylinder, tall form with hexagonal base made of PE-HD, standard design, 500 ml is a practical volumetric vessel for routine liquid measurement in the laboratory. Manufactured from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), the cylinder combines chemical resistance with low weight and good mechanical durability. The tall-form body supports clear volume reading, while the hexagonal PE-HD base ensures stable placement on the bench and helps prevent accidental tipping during use. This standard-design model from manufacturer Hecht is intended for general laboratory tasks such as preparing solutions, diluting samples or dispensing reagents where plasticware is preferred over glass. The HDPE construction offers resistance to many aqueous solutions and common laboratory chemicals, making the cylinder suitable for chemistry, biology, quality-control and teaching environments. Supplied as a single piece, it provides a reliable, break-resistant alternative for everyday volumetric work without the fragility of glass measuring cylinders.

Questions about Measuring cylinders tall form, hexagonal plastic base, standard type 500 ml
What is this article?
Measuring cylinders tall form, hexagonal plastic base, standard type 500 ml is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Hecht 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.
