Description

The MEDILAB Pear-Shaped Two-Neck Flask is a precision-engineered laboratory vessel designed for heating, mixing, distillation, and controlled chemical reactions. Its unique pear-shaped body promotes efficient mixing and minimizes sample loss, while the dual neck configuration allows simultaneous attachment of condensers, thermometers, adapters, or other lab apparatus. Made from high-quality Borosilicate Glass 3.3, this flask ensures excellent thermal resistance, chemical durability, and long operational life in demanding laboratory and industrial settings.
