Overview
Not a general mixing flask or beaker, this is a Class A volumetric flask made for a single exact volume. The body is machine blown with a heavy beaded neck, and the neck is tooled to take a polyethylene snap-cap.
Class A ware is the standard to ask for when solutions must be made up to an exact line, and white block lettering makes the inscription easy to read. The listing leaves out the tolerance value and glass type.
Who it's for
Analytical and teaching labs preparing standards and dilutions to a marked line. Anyone doing general mixing or heating work should use a beaker or conical flask instead.
Pros and cons
- Class A grade
- Sharp permanent graduation line
- Easy to read inscription
- Tolerance value unstated
- Glass type unstated
Performance notes
The single graduation line on the neck marks the exact volume, and the solution is brought up to it with the meniscus read at eye level. The snap-cap closes the neck for mixing by inversion and for short storage.
