Technibec 2.0 Electric Beak

The StemAids Technibec 2.0 Electric Beak is a flameless electric laboratory burner designed as a modern alternative to a traditional gas Bunsen burner. It is suitable for chemistry teaching, microbiology training, glasswork, sterilization support, heating demonstrations, and laboratory practicals where gas-free operation and improved user safety are required.

Product Description

The StemAids Technibec 2.0 Electric Beak produces a powerful upward flow of hot air for laboratory heating applications. It allows many procedures normally performed with a Bunsen burner, including heating containers, sterilizing platinum loops, bending glass tubes, making capillaries, and demonstrating combustion or heating reactions under supervised laboratory conditions.

With a hot-air flow reaching up to 800°C and a protective cold casing below 35°C, the Technibec 2.0 supports safer handling compared with open-flame gas burners. It does not require butane, propane, or natural gas, making it useful for schools, colleges, universities, microbiology labs, research laboratories, and training institutions where gas supply is restricted or not preferred.
