Elevating grid for water bath

The StemAids Elevating Grid for Water Bath is a laboratory accessory designed to raise sample vessels, racks, bottles, beakers, tubes, and containers above the bottom surface of a water bath tank. It supports stable sample placement, improves water movement around vessels, and helps prevent direct contact between containers and the heated tank base during controlled heating procedures.

Product Description

The StemAids Elevating Grid is used inside compatible laboratory water baths to provide a raised platform for sample vessels. By keeping vessels slightly elevated from the bath bottom, the grid helps support more uniform water exposure and safer sample handling during heating, incubation, thawing, reagent warming, and temperature-controlled laboratory workflows.

Made for routine laboratory use, this accessory is suitable for educational laboratories, research labs, microbiology labs, biotechnology labs, clinical labs, pharmaceutical testing labs, food testing labs, quality control departments, and industrial laboratory applications. It is especially useful when handling beakers, bottles, flasks, tube racks, vials, and other compatible laboratory containers in a water bath.
