Stainless Steel Fiberglass Coated Beaker Safety Tongs
Manufacturer: VWR International
The Stainless Steel Fiberglass Coated Beaker Safety Tongs from VWR International are engineered for the secure transport of hot glassware and labware. Unlike standard rubber-coated tongs that can melt or degrade, these tongs feature a specialized fiberglass coating specifically designed for high-temperature applications. The wide-jaw design provides a stable, non-slip grip on beakers and similar vessels ranging from 50 mL to 2000 mL in capacity. Constructed from durable stainless steel with reinforced riveted joints, these tongs offer the mechanical strength and chemical resistance required for heavy use in industrial, clinical, and research laboratories.

Features:
- Superior Heat Resistance: The fiberglass jaw coating remains stable and provides grip at temperatures where plastic or rubber coatings would fail or adhere to the glass
- Corrosion Resistant: Stainless steel construction ensures longevity when exposed to steam in autoclaves or corrosive chemical vapors in fume hoods
- Ergonomic Length: The 12.5-inch length provides a safe distance between the user’s hand and the heat source or hazardous contents
- Versatile Grip: The jaw curvature is optimized to maintain multiple points of contact on various vessel diameters, preventing slips or spills
Safety & Care Information:
CAUTION! Thermal Safety: While the fiberglass coating is heat-resistant, it is not an absolute insulator. Always use appropriate heat-resistant gloves when handling vessels from high-temperature ovens (250°C).
- Maintenance: Periodically check the riveted joints for smooth operation. If the tongs become stiff, clean with a laboratory-grade degreaser.
- Inspection: Routinely inspect the fiberglass coating for fraying. If the stainless steel becomes exposed at the contact points, replace the tongs to maintain a secure, non-slip grip.
