Product Description
Microscale chemistry depends on gentle, even heating of very small vessels, which an oil bath or sand bath cannot always provide. These aluminum heating blocks deliver fast, uniform heat transfer to microscale flasks and vials while sitting directly on a stirring hot plate.
This listing is for Kimble catalog number 720205-0001: Aluminum Heating Block, For All Micro Kits (Open bottom) Four Holes - (2)9/16", 13/16", 21/32". The blocks are machined from aluminum for excellent heat transfer and do not interfere with magnetic stirring. Solid bottom versions fit 14/10 standard taper kits or Williamson kits, an open bottom four-hole version fits all micro kits, and a split block holds vials. Blocks are about 3/4 inch high. LIGHT LABS ships genuine DWK Life Sciences products with knowledgeable support from our Englewood, Colorado team.
