Description
Nalgene™ polypropylene vacuum flasks offer a robust alternative to glass filtration flasks for laboratory vacuum work. Each flask is moulded in one piece from polypropylene for use under full vacuum and features an angled tubing connection that helps reduce the risk of tipping during setup and operation. With a metric capacity of 1700 ml, the vessel suits filtration, aspiration, and related vacuum applications where shatter resistance and chemical durability matter. The flask accepts a No. 10 stopper and is autoclavable, supporting sterilisation for repeated use in controlled laboratory environments. Supplied as a single unit, it is practical for dedicated filtration stations or as a durable replacement for fragile glassware. Polypropylene construction provides a lightweight yet sturdy body suited to routine handling on the bench. This vacuum flask from manufacturer Thermo Scientific belongs to the Nalgene™ plastics range used across research and industrial laboratories. The one-piece design with the angled hose barb supports stable vacuum connections while the stated stopper size simplifies matching to common laboratory stoppers. Ideal where filtration bottles and vacuum flasks must withstand daily mechanical stress without sacrificing vacuum readiness.
This article is part of Erlenmeyer flasks, in Beakers & flasks.

Questions about Nalgene™ Polypropylene Vacuum Flask
What is this article?
Nalgene™ Polypropylene Vacuum Flask is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics for laboratory use. It sits in Erlenmeyer flasks, inside Beakers & flasks, in Labware.
An Erlenmeyer, or conical, flask has a flat base and a narrowing wall so a liquid can be swirled. It is the ordinary culture and titration flask. A baffled wall is a different article, used when the swirl must turn the liquid over.
A beaker is an open working vessel: easy to pour, poor as a measure. An Erlenmeyer flask has a flat base and a conical wall so a liquid can be swirled without climbing out. A round-bottom flask is for heating under a condenser, because the heat meets a curved wall and the joint at the neck connects to the rest of the glassware. Borosilicate is the glass that survives the temperature change. These forms are listed under ISO laboratory glassware.
