The MEDILAB Solid Glass Stopper is a precision-engineered sealing component designed for use with standardised jointed laboratory glassware. Made from premium Borosilicate Glass 3.3, it provides a secure, airtight closure for reagent bottles, flasks, cylinders, and chemical storage containers. Its durable, solid construction ensures enhanced mechanical strength and long-term reliability in both routine and demanding laboratory environments.

 Key Features

  • Manufactured from high-quality Borosilicate Glass 3.3 for exceptional clarity and durability
  • Solid structure provides maximum mechanical strength and long service life
  • Flat head design ensures easy grip, smooth handling, and safe insertion/removal
  • Precision-ground joints provide airtight, leak-free sealing
  • Resistant to thermal shock, chemical corrosion, and aggressive laboratory reagents
  • Fully compatible with standardised jointed laboratory vessels
  • Non-reactive surface maintains sample purity and prevents contamination
  • Ideal for long-term storage of sensitive chemicals and solutions

Material Specifications

  • Material: Borosilicate Glass 3.3
  • Thermal Properties: Low thermal expansion (3.3 × 10⁻⁶ /°C), excellent resistance to rapid temperature fluctuations, suitable for autoclaving and controlled heating
  • Chemical Properties: Highly resistant to acids, alkalis, organic solvents, and corrosive vapours. Non-porous and stain-resistant
  • Mechanical Properties: Strong, solid construction for demanding applications. Ground joint ensures precision fit
  • Standards Compliance: Manufactured according to ISO/DIN standards for interchangeable laboratory glassware

Technical Specifications

  • Available Joint Sizes: As per the standard size table
  • Design: Solid body, flat head, precision-ground joint
  • Tolerance: Standardised joint tolerances for seamless interchangeability. Not applicable for volumetric calibration
  • Accessories Included: Supplied as a stopper only (no additional components required)

 Handling & Precautions

  • Insert and remove gently to protect the joint and avoid unnecessary stress
  • Clean using mild laboratory detergents; avoid abrasive tools
  • Rinse thoroughly after contact with strong reagents
  • Autoclavable; allow gradual heating and cooling to prevent thermal stress
  • Inspect regularly for chips, cracks, or wear; replace if damaged
  • Do not use if the ground joint surface shows visible abrasion

 Applications

  • Suitable for reagent bottles, storage flasks, volumetric flasks, and jointed cylinders
  • Widely used in analytical, research, academic, and industrial laboratories
  • Ideal for pharmaceutical, chemical, biotechnology, environmental, and QC/QA labs
  • Ensures safe storage and handling of chemicals, reagents, standards, and sensitive solutions
  • Supports daily workflows in sample preparation, chemical storage, and analytical processes
