Educational Benefits & Features
Feature: Three-finger jaw geometry.Benefit: Distributes clamping pressure across three distinct points, providing a more secure and balanced grip on heavy or elongated borosilicate condensers than standard two-prong utility clamps.
Feature: Independent dual-screw adjustment.Benefit: Enables students to calibrate the clamp's reach and angle with high precision, ensuring the exact axial alignment of glassware over heat sources or receiving vessels.
Feature: PVC-coated finger sleeves.Benefit: Acts as a mechanical cushion and thermal barrier, preventing localized stress fractures in glass caused by direct metal contact or thermal expansion during exothermic reactions.
Feature: Pressure die-cast alloy construction.Benefit: Offers superior structural rigidity and resistance to warping under high-temperature conditions, maintaining equipment alignment throughout long-duration experiments.
Feature: Nickel-plated steel extension rod.Benefit: Provides excellent corrosion resistance against common laboratory vapors, such as Hydrochloric Acid or concentrated Ammonia, extending the instrument's operational lifespan in institutional settings.
