Educational Benefits & Key Features
Feature: High-Mass A-Shaped Base.Benefit: Lowers the center of gravity for the entire assembly, preventing accidental tipping when supporting heavy borosilicate glassware or offset distillation columns.
Feature: Three-Point Geometric Contact.Benefit: Solves the issue of unstable laboratory benches by providing a naturally balanced footprint that eliminates wobbling during sensitive experimental procedures.
Feature: Chemical-Resistant Powder Coating.Benefit: Protects the cast iron substrate from oxidative degradation and corrosion when exposed to common laboratory reagents such as Hydrochloric Acid or Sodium Hydroxide.
Feature: Precision-Threaded Rod Socket.Benefit: Ensures a perfectly vertical alignment of the support rod, which is critical for maintaining the accuracy of volumetric measurements and meniscus readings.
Feature: Polished Rod Surface.Benefit: Facilitates the smooth vertical transition of bossheads and clamps, reducing mechanical friction and allowing for micro-adjustments in apparatus height.
