Kontes Round Bottom Flask 3 Neck 3000 ml Morton with 24/40 Joints Straight

The Kontes 609400 Round Bottom Flask is a laboratory vessel featuring a spherical body with three distinct necks, each equipped with a 24/40 standard taper ground glass joint in a straight orientation. This flask has a 3000 ml capacity, making it suitable for larger volume reactions, distillations, or other chemical procedures. The "Morton" designation refers to the presence of indentations on the inner walls of the flask. These indentations are specifically designed to enhance the agitation of the contents when stirring, creating turbulence and preventing the formation of a stagnant vortex, which leads to more efficient mixing.

This flask is constructed with a heavy wall, providing added strength and durability for demanding laboratory use. It is manufactured from 33 expansion, low extractable borosilicate glass, a high-quality material that conforms to USP Type I and ASTM E438, Type I, Class A requirements. This type of glass offers excellent chemical resistance and minimizes the leaching of impurities into the contents of the flask, ensuring the integrity of experiments. The three necks allow for the simultaneous introduction of multiple reactants, the insertion of thermometers or stirrers, and the attachment of condensers or distillation heads, making it a versatile tool for various synthetic and analytical procedures.
