Product Description
Large glass bottles are safer to handle when a plastic coating stands between the glass and a hard floor. These heavy duty serum bottles combine a protective KimCote safety coating with thick borosilicate glass, giving labs a sturdy 1 or 2 gallon vessel for preparing, storing and transporting bulk serum, media and reagent solutions.
This listing is for Kimble catalog number 14960-4: KimCote Heavy Duty Serum Bottles, 4000 mL. The bottle body is made from 33 expansion, low extractable borosilicate glass that meets USP Type I and ASTM E438, Type I, Class A. Rounded shoulders support easy pouring and cleaning, and the neck is tooled to fit a No. 8 rubber stopper uniformly. The exterior plastic coating helps contain glass and contents if a bottle is dropped or cracked. Add it to your LIGHT LABS order alongside the rest of your glassware and closures.
