Upgrade your stirring game with our premium Magnetic Stir Bar featuring a unique Pivot Ring design. Unlike standard bars that scrape and chatter against the bottom of your glassware, this advanced design raises the bar slightly, reducing friction for a quieter, smoother spin.
Crafted from high-quality chemically inert PTFE (Teflon) , this stir bar is resistant to strong acids, bases, and solvents, ensuring it won't contaminate your solutions.
Key Features:
· Prevents Scraping: The raised pivot ring minimizes contact with the flask, protecting both your glassware and the magnetic core.
· Ultra-Smooth Rotation: Reduced friction allows for consistent stirring at higher speeds without "de-synchronizing."
· Chemically Resistant: 100% Pure PTFE coating.
· Strong Magnetic Core: Encased alnico magnet provides a strong coupling with your stir plate.
· Perfect Size: The 7mm diameter x 25mm length is ideal for 50ml to 1000ml vessels.
How to Use:
1. Place: Simply drop the stir bar into your beaker, flask, or media bottle containing your solution.
2. Position: Place the glassware in the center of your magnetic stirrer plate.
3. Start Slow: Begin stirring at a low speed to allow the bar to center itself and find its natural rotation.
4. Increase Speed: Gradually increase the RPM to achieve your desired vortex. The pivot ring ensures it stays quiet, even at higher speeds.
· Easy to Clean & Autoclavable
Important Usage & Care Tip
1. Speed Control: Always start with the stirrer speed on low and gradually increase. Starting at maximum speed can cause the bar to "throw" out of sync.
2. Vessel Fit: This size is best suited for round-bottom flasks or flat-bottom beakers between 50ml and 1000ml. If the vessel is too large, the magnetic field may be too weak to spin the bar effectively.
3. Cleaning: PTFE is non-stick and easy to clean. Rinse with deionized water and mild detergent. For sterilization, autoclave at 121°C (250°F).
4. Storage: Store away from strong magnetic fields to prevent demagnetization when not in use.
