Description
Crucible tongs, stainless, 220 mm are laboratory handling tools designed for the safe gripping and transfer of hot crucibles, dishes or similar vessels during heating and cooling cycles. The tongs measure 220 mm in length and feature a doubly bent construction that improves reach and control around furnace openings or hot plates. Made of stainless steel for corrosion resistance and durability under repeated thermal exposure, they form a standard item in the crucible-tongs category. Offered by manufacturer Usbeck, the tool is supplied as a single piece with a net weight of 0,096 kg, making it lightweight yet robust for daily bench or furnace work. The stainless material withstands typical laboratory cleaning regimes and maintains mechanical integrity over extended service. These crucible tongs support precise manipulation of samples in analytical chemistry, materials testing and educational laboratories where direct hand contact with heated objects must be avoided. The 220 mm length provides a practical balance between leverage and manoeuvrability in confined workspaces. Overall the design emphasises reliable, straightforward performance for routine high-temperature handling tasks.

Questions about Crucible Tongs St.St. 220 mm
What is this article?
Crucible Tongs St.St. 220 mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Usbeck for laboratory use. It sits in Crucibles, inside Dishes, crucibles & porcelain, in Matériel de laboratoire.
A crucible holds a sample in a furnace or over a flame, at temperatures that would soften a borosilicate beaker. Porcelain, platinum and glazed ceramic are different articles. The form, tall or wide, decides how fast a sample dries or ashes.
A dish is an open vessel for drying, evaporating or holding a solid. Porcelain and glazed ceramic take a higher temperature than borosilicate glass, which is why a crucible, not a beaker, goes into a furnace. A watch glass covers, or holds a small amount for drying. A mortar is for grinding. The temperature and the chemical, not the shape alone, choose the material. Laboratory ware of this family is listed under ISO laboratory ware.
