Borosilicate Volumetric Pipette

The borosilicate volumetric pipette is a laboratory glass instrument used for transferring a defined volume of liquid during quantitative laboratory procedures. Designed for chemistry, analytical, educational and research laboratories, it supports controlled liquid transfer where a fixed-volume pipette is required for solution preparation, dilution or analytical work.

Product Description

The STEMAids Borosilicate Volumetric Pipette is made from borosilicate glass and is intended for controlled transfer of a specified liquid volume. Volumetric pipettes use one or more calibration marks to define the delivery volume and are commonly used when laboratory procedures require more controlled volume transfer than general-purpose droppers or transfer pipettes.

The exact nominal capacity, accuracy class, tolerance, calibration type, graduation configuration and colour coding are . These values should be verified against the current STEMAids product specification before publication or tender submission.

Key Features

• Borosilicate glass construction: The pipette is identified as borosilicate glass laboratory ware.
• Defined-volume transfer: Designed to transfer a specified volume of liquid during quantitative laboratory procedures.
• Volumetric laboratory design: Suitable for solution preparation, dilution and analytical workflows requiring controlled liquid volumes.
• Transparent glass body: Allows the liquid level and meniscus to be observed during filling and adjustment.
• Reusable laboratory format: Can be cleaned and reused when compatible with the laboratory procedure and chemicals handled.
• Manual liquid handling: Designed for use with a suitable pipette filler or safety bulb rather than mouth pipetting.
• Accuracy classification: Class A, AS or B designation is and must not be assumed without manufacturer documentation.

How to Use the Borosilicate Volumetric Pipette

1. Inspect the pipette for cracks, chips, contamination or damaged markings.
2. Rinse or condition the pipette as required by the laboratory procedure.
3. Attach a suitable pipette filler or safety bulb. Never pipette by mouth.
4. Draw the liquid above the calibration mark without allowing liquid to enter the filler.
5. Hold the pipette vertically and adjust the liquid meniscus to the calibration mark at eye level.
6. Transfer the liquid into the receiving vessel according to the pipette’s specified delivery procedure.
7. Observe any prescribed drainage or waiting time only if confirmed for the applicable calibration class.

Safety note: Never mouth-pipette chemicals or biological liquids. Wear appropriate laboratory PPE and do not use damaged glassware. Accuracy depends on correct meniscus reading, clean glassware and the specified delivery technique.

Care & Maintenance

• Clean the pipette promptly using a method compatible with the substances transferred.
• Keep the internal surface clean so liquid drains consistently during volumetric work.
• Avoid abrasive cleaning that could damage calibration markings or the glass surface.
• Store pipettes securely in a suitable rack or cabinet to prevent impact and tip breakage.
