Weighing Bottle

Product Code : SCL-LG-11991

Weighing Bottle (SKU SCL-LG-11991) is a clear glass vessel with a ground glass joint and stopper for weighing solid or powdered samples and keeping them free of moisture, dust and airborne contamination between steps. Analytical and general chemistry laboratories, college practical classes and research groups use it during quantitative work. Schools, colleges, testing laboratories, tender contractors and distributors can source it from Science Lab Supplies, which supplies it from Ambala, India.

Specifications

The bottle is formed from clear, heat- and chemical-resistant glass, so the sample and the bottle's cleanliness can be checked at a glance. A close-fitting ground glass stopper seals it during weighing and short-term storage. Two sizes are listed, 60 x 30 and 35 x 25; the quotation confirms their units and orientation.

Applications and Experiments for the Weighing Bottle

A weighing bottle is used whenever a solid must be weighed accurately without picking up moisture or dust from the air. The sample is weighed in the closed bottle, a portion is tipped out, and the bottle is reweighed, so the mass delivered is known exactly.

• B.Sc. analytical chemistry: weighing by difference when preparing standard solutions.
• Gravimetric and moisture determinations in college and testing laboratories.
• B.Pharm pharmaceutical analysis: accurate weighing of solid samples for assays.
• Teaching correct balance use and sample transfer in school chemistry.

Keep the ground joint clean so the stopper seals and does not stick, and store each bottle with its own stopper.

Standard Scope of Supply

Each weighing bottle comes in the size you select with its matching ground glass stopper. An analytical balance, spatula, desiccator, drying oven and samples are not included; mention any of these in your enquiry if they should be quoted alongside the bottles.

Packing, MOQ and Lead Time

You can ask for a handful of bottles or a stock for a whole analytical laboratory, in one size or both. The quotation sets out the packing, delivery time and price for your quantity, and further school chemistry lab equipment in India can be listed on it too.

Operating with an Importer-Exporter Code as a registered exporter, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Uganda and the UAE. The contact page is the quickest route for a question; the enquiry cart collects items for one quotation, and the lab tender page covers institutional tenders.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a weighing bottle used for?
It holds solid or powdered samples during weighing and keeps them covered, which limits the uptake of moisture and dust. It is also handy for weighing by difference when preparing solutions.

What sizes are available?
Two sizes are listed, 60 x 30 and 35 x 25. The listing does not give units or say which figure is height, so the quotation confirms these details for the size you choose.

Is the stopper supplied with the bottle?
Yes. Each bottle has a ground glass joint and is supplied with a compatible ground glass stopper. Keep the pair together, as stoppers are fitted to their bottles.

Who supplies the Weighing Bottle?
Science Lab Supplies, located in Ambala, India, supplies these bottles to schools, colleges and analytical laboratories, and can add them to a wider glassware order or tender quotation.

Related Weighing and Drying Glassware

Accurate weighing depends on keeping samples dry before and after the balance. These four items handle drying, cooling, filtering and density work that commonly go hand in hand with a weighing bottle on a quantitative chemistry bench.

• Glass Desiccator — stores weighing bottles and dried samples away from humidity.
• Watch Glass — an open surface for weighing or evaporating small samples.
• Gooch Crucible — collects precipitates for gravimetric weighing.
• Specific Gravity Bottle — weighs a fixed volume of liquid for density.
