Glass rod stirrers are essential for applications requiring manual mixing and stirring of liquids and solutions. They are typically manufactured from borosilicate glass, which is high-quality and resistant to chemicals and thermal shock. Glass rod stirrers carry excellent thermal properties and can withstand moderate changes in temperature. This is essential when working with solutions that must be stirred at different temperature levels.
Glass rod stirrers are easy to clean and sterilize, last a long time, and can be a cost-effective laboratory solution.
Lab glass rods are available in various lengths and diameters to accommodate multiple laboratory requirements. Most stirrers will have rounded or fire-polished ends to prevent scratching or damage to the glassware.
Thomas Scientific also offers a variety of other stirrers and glassware to suit a variety of lab needs.
