Educational Benefits & Features
Feature: High-grade stainless steel construction.
Benefit: Prevents oxidation and corrosion when exposed to moisture or volatile substances like Hydrochloric Acid, significantly extending equipment lifespan in high-use labs.
Feature: Solid plate-top design.
Benefit: Provides a broader, more stable surface area for small-base vessels compared to traditional ring stands, reducing the risk of accidental tipping during volatile chemical reactions.
Feature: Precision-threaded detachable legs.
Benefit: Allows for compact, flat-pack storage in limited laboratory prep rooms while maintaining structural rigidity and a perfectly level heating surface during use.
Feature: Non-reactive, unpainted metallic surface.
Benefit: Eliminates the risk of lead or paint fume contamination during high-temperature experiments, ensuring student safety and maintaining the integrity of sensitive analytical results.
Curriculum Alignment
This apparatus is designed to facilitate laboratory modules defined by the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and international STEM frameworks. It specifically supports practical assessments in thermodynamics, chemical kinetics, and the purification of substances through evaporation or distillation in both secondary and higher education settings.
