Wire Gauze – Laboratory Heating Support
The Wire Gauze is a laboratory support accessory used with a Bunsen burner and tripod stand to support glassware during heating. Supplied by Elmo Agencies, a trusted scientific manufacturer in Ambala, it is suitable for chemistry practicals, school laboratories, colleges, and routine laboratory heating applications.
A Wire Gauze provides a stable surface between the flame and suitable laboratory glassware. Its mesh structure helps distribute heat over a broader area, reducing the concentration of direct flame on one part of the vessel.
The specified gauze features a 4-inch ceramic centre and measures 6 × 6 inches, making it suitable for supporting appropriately sized laboratory vessels.

How Is Wire Gauze Used?
The wire gauze is placed on top of a suitable tripod stand or laboratory support ring. A compatible flat-bottomed vessel, such as a beaker, can then be positioned on the gauze while a Bunsen burner supplies heat from below.
The gauze helps spread the heat across the supported area rather than concentrating the flame directly on a single point of the vessel.
Applications
- Heating beakers and suitable glassware
- Chemistry laboratory experiments
- Evaporation procedures
- Preparing and heating solutions
- School and college practicals
- General laboratory heating setups
Important Precautions
- Use the gauze with an appropriate stable support.
- Check the wire and ceramic centre for damage before use.
- Do not place oversized or unstable vessels on the gauze.
- Allow the gauze to cool before handling.
- Avoid sudden temperature changes that may damage the ceramic centre.
