Educational Benefits & Key Features
Feature: Pressure Die-Cast Aluminium Construction.
Benefit: Provides a superior strength-to-weight ratio, preventing structural failure or snapping when supporting heavy, liquid-filled condensers.
Feature: Precision-Machined V-Grooves.
Benefit: Solves the problem of axial slippage by creating a secure, three-point grip on vertical and horizontal support rods.
Feature: Ergonomic Thumb Screws.
Benefit: Reduces student fatigue and manual strain, enabling secure fastening of the apparatus without the requirement for specialized tools.
Feature: Acid-Resistant Epoxy Finish.
Benefit: Protects the metallurgical integrity of the clamp from oxidative degradation when exposed to corrosive vapors such as Hydrochloric Acid or Ammonia.
Feature: Offset Clamping Slots.
Benefit: Allows for the independent adjustment of horizontal accessories without disturbing the primary vertical alignment of the retort stand.
