Description
Crucible tongs, 200 mm double, bent, with scissor action are laboratory handling instruments for secure gripping and transfer of crucibles and similar vessels during heating, ashing, and analytical work. The double bent form combined with a scissor-action mechanism supports controlled opening and closing when working with hot or delicate samples at the bench or near heat sources. At 200 mm overall length, the tongs offer practical reach for routine furnace and hot-plate operations while remaining compact for everyday laboratory use. Supplied as one piece with a net weight of 0,08 kg and a gross weight of 0,086 kg, they integrate easily into standard weighing, sample preparation, and materials-testing workflows. These tongs from manufacturer Hammacher belong to the crucible tongs category and are intended for professional chemistry, materials, quality-control, and teaching laboratories. The scissor-action design aids precise manipulation and a steady hold during transfer steps, helping operators maintain safe handling practices around elevated temperatures. The 200 mm length balances leverage and control for typical crucible sizes used in preparative and analytical procedures, supporting efficient and repeatable sample handling routines.

Questions about Crucible tongs, 200 mm double, curved
What is this article?
Crucible tongs, 200 mm double, curved is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Hammacher for laboratory use. It sits in Crucibles, inside Dishes, crucibles & porcelain, in Labware.
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.
