VWR Double Ended Lab Spatula Square and Flat Spoon Ends 9 Inches Set of 2
VWR 89259-966 Double-Ended Lab Spatula – 9", Square and Flat Spoon Ends
The VWR 89259-966 is a premium laboratory spatula designed for the efficient handling, transfer, and measurement of dry powders, granular materials, and viscous samples. Crafted from durable stainless steel, it features a flat square blade on one end and a flat spoon on the other. The spoon is ideal for scooping and weighing out precise aliquots of chemical standards onto analytical balances, while the square edge functions as an excellent scraper to break up caked reagents or retrieve materials from the tight corners of sample containers. Its extended 9-inch length ensures researchers can easily reach the bottom of tall media bottles, volumetric flasks, and deep jars without risking glove contact with the vessel walls.
Technical Performance and Design
Stainless Steel Construction: Crafted from premium metal, providing excellent chemical resistance to solvents, acids, and bases, while allowing for easy cleaning and high-temperature autoclave sterilization.
Dual-Ended Functionality: Combines the granular scooping capabilities of a spoon with the scraping, crushing, and spreading functions of a flat, square-edged spatula in a single tool.
Extended 9-Inch Reach: The generous 22.9 cm length is specifically tailored to safely retrieve samples from deep or narrow-necked laboratory glassware without contaminating the internal environment.
Rigid Profile: The thick metal core prevents bending or snapping when applying mechanical force to scrape dried, viscous, or stubborn materials from the sides of beakers and crucibles.
