Laboratory Glass Stirrer

Original price was: ₹16.00.Current price is: ₹4.00.

Quick answer: A laboratory glass stirrer is a solid glass rod used to mix, stir or guide the pouring of liquids and solutions during everyday laboratory work.

Simple but essential, the glass stirring rod is used across almost every kind of laboratory procedure, from dissolving a solid in a beaker to gently mixing a reagent into a solution without introducing air bubbles. Its smooth, rounded ends make it safe to use directly in glassware without scratching the inside surface, and its solid glass construction means it will not react with most common laboratory reagents.

Beyond stirring, the rod is also commonly used to guide a stream of liquid during pouring, held against the lip of a beaker or flask to direct the flow and prevent spills or drips down the side of the container.
