The benefits of Super Duty glassware

General glass products such as flask and beakers are prone to breakages in busy labs. Beakers are bumped, flasks are dropped, accidents happen. In these cases, general glass products may break or crack just by tipping over and samples inside can be lost.
DURAN has developed a longer lasting solution to avoid simple breakages with their Super Duty beaker and flask range. The Super Duty beakers and flask have a wall thickness which is more than double that of a standard beaker or flask which makes them hard to break. These beakers and flasks are also perfect if your test requires rapid heating up and cooling down - thermal shock properties are paramount.
Yes, Super Duty glassware can cost a little more than general glassware, but it's a cost recovered down the line with less breakages and more reliability.
Features:
- Increased mechanical sturdiness due to increased uniform wall thickness
- Reinforced, sturdy rim
- Uniform wall thickness distribution
- Proven DURAN® properties
- Type 1 glass / neutral glass as per USP, EP and JP
- Autoclavable / sterilisable
- With Retrace Code
- Easy-to-read scale
- Fired-on, extremely durable printing
