Beaker, Clear Glass/Soda Glass

High-Clarity Soda-Lime Composition: Utilizes a refined soda-lime-silica formulation that maximizes light transmission and optical neutrality, allowing for accurate colorimetric analysis and visual monitoring of precipitates or phase changes.

Precision-Molded Mechanical Stability: Manufactured using advanced press-mold technology to ensure consistent base-to-wall thickness ratios, significantly enhancing resistance to physical impact and mechanical stress during high-frequency laboratory handling.

Quick Answer: LabEquip’s Clear Soda-Glass Beaker is a general-purpose laboratory beaker made from soda-lime glass, ideal for routine mixing, sample storage, and classroom demonstrations where the higher thermal-shock resistance of borosilicate glass is not required. It is supplied in a range of standard laboratory capacities to suit school and college requirements.

Description

The Clear Soda-Glass Beaker from LabEquip is manufactured from clear soda-lime glass, giving it good optical clarity for observing colour changes, precipitation, and reaction progress during general laboratory work. Soda-glass beakers are widely used across school and college laboratories as an economical alternative to borosilicate beakers for tasks that do not involve direct flame heating or rapid temperature changes. Each beaker features a flat base for stable bench placement and a moulded spout for controlled pouring, making it a practical choice for everyday liquid handling, mixing, and short-term storage of aqueous solutions.

  • Titration and volumetric work where non-heated glassware is required
  • General-purpose glassware for student practicals

Care & Handling

Wash with a mild laboratory detergent and rinse thoroughly with distilled water before and after use. Because soda-lime glass has lower thermal-shock resistance than borosilicate glassware, avoid placing this beaker directly over an open flame or subjecting it to sudden temperature changes, such as moving it straight from a hot plate to a cold surface. Store beakers on a stable, padded shelf away from bench edges, and inspect the rim and base for chips or cracks before each use to avoid breakage during handling.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a soda-glass beaker used for?

A soda-glass beaker is used for general laboratory tasks such as mixing solutions, transferring liquids, and short-term storage of samples in school and college laboratories. It is not intended for applications involving direct flame heating.

Can this beaker be heated directly on a flame?

No. Soda-lime glass has lower thermal-shock resistance than borosilicate glass, so this beaker should not be heated directly over an open flame or exposed to sudden temperature changes. For heated applications, a borosilicate beaker or flask is more suitable.

What sizes or capacities are available?

This beaker is supplied in a range of standard laboratory capacities. Please confirm the exact volume you require when placing your enquiry so we can advise on availability.

Is soda glass the same as borosilicate glass?

No. Soda-lime (soda) glass and borosilicate glass are different glass compositions. Soda glass is more economical and offers good clarity for general use, while borosilicate glass offers greater resistance to thermal shock and is generally preferred for heating applications.

How should I clean and store the beaker?

Clean with a mild laboratory detergent and rinse well with distilled water. Store on a stable shelf away from bench edges and check for chips or cracks before each use to reduce the risk of breakage.

Do you supply beakers in bulk for schools and institutions?

Yes. LabEquip supplies laboratory glassware, including beakers, in bulk for schools, colleges, and institutional laboratories. Please contact us with your quantity and capacity requirements for a quotation.
