Graduated Measuring Cylinders: Enhanced Precision with Hexagonal Base

The Measuring Cylinders Graduated Hexagonal Base by ESAW India are the ideal choice for laboratories demanding both stability and measurement precision. Crafted from premium borosilicate glass for chemical durability, these cylinders feature sharply defined graduations and a wide, robust hexagonal base engineered to effectively prevent tipping and roll-over, making them exceptionally safe for all scientific applications. This product line is specifically designed for high-volume use in educational institutions and rigorous standards of global research markets.

✨ Advanced Features for Professional Use and Compliance

• Sturdy Hexagonal Base: Ensures greater stability and actively prevents accidental roll-over, significantly reducing lab accidents and spills.
• Amber Enamel Graduations: Volume markings applied in Amber enamel for maximum contrast and durability, offering superior resistance to chemical cleaning and long-term fading.
• Individual Serial Number: Each cylinder is engraved with an individual serial number, simplifying inventory management and tracking calibration records for R&D facilities.
• Borosilicate Quality: Manufactured from Borosilicate Glass 3.3 (meeting ASTM E-1272 standards) for excellent chemical inertness and high thermal shock resistance.
• Interchangeable Compatibility: Designed for seamless use with other standard ground joint and long stem accessories.

🌍 Global Distribution and Primary Applications

❓ Expanded Q&A on Usage, Compliance, and Technical Details

Q1: What are the specific ASTM standards these Borosilicate cylinders comply with?

A: Our cylinders adhere to the essential specifications for graduated laboratory cylinders, primarily meeting ASTM E-1272 standards for material, graduation accuracy, and base stability. This compliance assures reliable performance in any certified research lab.

Q2: How does the Amber Enamel protect the graduations over the long term?

A: Amber enamel markings are fused onto the glass at high temperatures. Unlike standard ceramic inks, the Amber formulation resists etching from aggressive solvents and repeated scrubbing, ensuring the volume graduations remain highly visible and accurate throughout the life cycle of the cylinder, critical for student safety and analytical precision.

Q3: Which capacities are typically recommended for pharmaceutical compounding or medical dilution?

A: For precise dilution in Pharmaceutical or Hospital settings, the 50 ml and 100 ml cylinders are most frequently used due to their optimal balance of volume range and precision. The Hexagonal Base is especially valued here for preventing costly spills of expensive reagents or sensitive solutions.

Q4: What are the common accessories compatible with this glassware?

A: These graduated cylinders are compatible with standard polypropylene spouts, glass stoppers (for cylinders with interchangeable joints), and can be integrated into larger distillation setups using appropriate adapters and receiver delivery setups.

Q5: How does ESAW handle large-volume international shipping for institutional bulk orders?

A: We use robust, export-specific packaging that includes heavy-duty cartons and customized internal cushioning for each cylinder. Our logistics team specializes in securing container shipments to major ports globally, ensuring minimal breakage for institutional bulk purchase.
