Beakers
Beakers are essential components of any laboratory’s glassware collection. Whether used for mixing, heating, or measuring reagents, lab beakers provide versatility and reliability across a wide range of applications. MIDSCI offers an extensive selection of high-quality beakers designed for durability, clarity, and precision, making them a staple in research, education, and life sciences labs nationwide.
Types of Beakers
We supply a variety of lab beakers to suit different experimental needs and workflows:
Glass Beakers
Made from borosilicate glass for excellent chemical resistance and thermal durability. Available in both low-form and tall-form styles, ideal for general lab use or specialized heating applications.
Griffin Beakers
Also known as low-form Griffin beakers, these are perfect for stirring and heating on a hot plate, with wide mouths and graduated markings for easy pouring.
Graduated Beakers
These feature clear metric graduations for precise volume measurements and often come as part of a glass beaker set or as standalone ml beaker sizes.
Tri-Corner Beakers
Designed with three spouts for enhanced pour spout control, especially helpful when working with pipettes, dispensers, or transferring liquids to a test tube or graduated cylinder.
Features and Benefits of Beakers
- Material Variety: Choose from glass beakers, polypropylene beakers, or plastic beaker options to match your protocol needs. Glass options include Corning, Pyrex, and Class A ASTM-compliant models.
- Durable Construction: Many models feature heavy-duty construction, increased wall thickness, and resistance to thermal shock, making them autoclavable and reusable.
- Versatile Sizes: From small 10 ml beakers to large-volume options, all with easy-to-read graduated markings for consistent measurements.
- Specialty Options: We offer Berzelius and low-form models, plasticware alternatives with polypropylene plastic for chemical resistance, and PTFE-coated variants for ultra-clean applications.
