Description

The Gauge Wire with Ceramic Center is a laboratory accessory designed to be placed on a tripod stand to support glassware such as beakers, flasks, or crucibles during heating. The ceramic center prevents the glassware from coming into direct contact with the flame, protecting it from thermal shock while ensuring uniform heat distribution.

This product is widely used in chemistry laboratories for experiments involving heating or flame applications, providing stability and safety when working with hot glassware. The asbestos wire portion ensures durability and resistance to high temperatures, while the ceramic center maximizes safety and performance.
