Our verdict

A dozen very small Class A volumetric pipets with a stated tolerance, for delivering a fixed half milliliter with care. A fixed volume tool, not a general purpose pipet.

Overview

A bench needing one tiny fixed volume can use these pipets, which carry sharp, permanent graduation lines and enameled amber markings. They are calibrated to deliver, and a black band identifies the size.

The stated tolerance puts a number on how close deliveries will be, which is useful for standards work. The listing gives no cleaning guidance or material beyond the markings.

Who it's for

Analytical benches delivering very small fixed volumes repeatedly. For flexible volumes, an adjustable pipettor is the better tool.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Class A to ASTM and USP
  • Enameled amber markings
  • Black color band
Cons
  • Fixed volume only
  • Material not named
  • Care steps not listed

Performance notes

The pipet is filled to the mark and drained by gravity, delivering its fixed volume within the stated tolerance. At such a small volume, a clean bore and a careful meniscus reading matter most.
