Flat Bottom Flask

Flat Bottom Flask – Borosilicate Laboratory Flask

The Flat Bottom Flask is laboratory glassware designed for holding, mixing, heating, and storing suitable liquids during chemistry experiments. Supplied by Elmo Agencies, a scientific manufacturer in Ambala, the borosilicate flat bottom flask features uniform wall thickness, a sturdy rim, and a durable enamelled marking area for convenient laboratory identification.

A Flat Bottom Flask has a broad, stable base that allows it to stand upright on a laboratory bench without requiring a separate support ring for routine handling. Its design makes it useful for heating and preparing solutions in chemistry laboratories.

The uniform wall thickness distribution helps provide consistent heating of the glass when the flask is used under appropriate laboratory conditions.

Borosilicate Glass Construction

The flask is made from borosilicate glass, a material widely used for laboratory glassware because of its relatively low thermal expansion and good resistance to thermal shock compared with ordinary soda-lime glass.

The suitability of the flask for heating depends on the specific experimental conditions, chemical compatibility, and proper laboratory handling.

Key Features

• Borosilicate glass construction
• Uniform wall thickness distribution
• Suitable for heating appropriate liquids
• Strong and sturdy rim
• Flat base for stable placement
• Durable matt-finished enamelled marking area
• White printed marking surface
• Available in different sizes

Applications

• Heating suitable laboratory liquids
• Preparing chemical solutions
• Mixing laboratory reagents
• Chemistry practicals
• General laboratory experiments
• Educational demonstrations
• Sample preparation

Each flask features a durable matt-finished enamelled area designed for writing or identifying the contents of the vessel. The white printed area provides a visible surface for laboratory labelling.

Heating and Handling

The flat base allows the flask to remain stable on a level laboratory surface. When heating the flask, appropriate laboratory equipment and procedures should be followed.

Avoid sudden temperature changes, direct contact with an unsuitable heat source, or heating a damaged glass flask. The flask should be inspected for cracks or chips before use.

Conclusion

The Flat Bottom Flask by Elmo Agencies is a practical borosilicate laboratory flask for heating, mixing, and preparing suitable liquids in chemistry laboratories. Its uniform wall thickness, sturdy rim, stable flat base, and durable enamelled marking area make it suitable for educational, analytical, and routine laboratory applications.
