The StemAids Water 250 mL Bath Plate is a laboratory heating accessory designed to support stable and efficient heating of 250 mL round-bottom flasks on compatible magnetic stirring hotplates. It helps convert a suitable hotplate stirrer into a practical heating-mantle-style setup for flask-based heating, reflux, evaporation, distillation, and organic chemistry procedures.
Product Description
The StemAids Water 250 mL Bath Plate is made for laboratories that require safe and uniform heating of 250 mL round-bottom flasks. The plate sits on the magnetic stirring hotplate surface and provides a shaped support area for the flask, helping improve contact, stability, and heat transfer during laboratory heating operations.
Its aluminium alloy construction supports thermal conduction and repeated laboratory use. This accessory is suitable for chemistry laboratories, school and college practicals, research laboratories, pharmaceutical testing, quality-control labs, and routine sample preparation work.
