Fisherbrand Microspatula Double Ended Stainless Steel 8 in. Length Pack of 12 Spatulas

Fisherbrand 8-inch Double-Ended Stainless Steel Microspatulas (21-401-10) – Pack of 12

The Fisherbrand Double-Ended Microspatulas (21-401-10) are versatile, precision laboratory instruments designed for transferring, scraping, and handling small quantities of powders, granular chemicals, pastes, and biological samples. Forged from high-grade, polished 304 stainless steel, these 8-inch (203 mm) microspatulas offer exceptional mechanical strength and resistance to chemical corrosion, rust, and thermal degradation. Featuring a dual-ended functional design—combining a rounded flat blade on one end with a tapered pointed blade on the opposite end—these tools provide lab technicians with maximum flexibility during reagent weighing, sample preparation, and cleanroom workflows. Supplied as a convenient pack of 12 spatulas, this multi-pack ensures reliable, reusable utility across chemistry, biology, and quality control laboratories.

Technical Performance & Physical Integrity

• Corrosion-Resistant Stainless Steel Construction: Manufactured from premium polished 304 stainless steel, providing high resistance to dilute acids, alkalis, organic solvents, and harsh laboratory reagents.
• Dual-End Functional Versatility: Features a flat rounded blade on one end for scooping, leveling, and scraping flat surfaces, paired with a tapered pointed blade on the opposite end for precise sample manipulation in narrow vials and micro-tubes.
• Autoclavable & Chemical Sterilization Ready: Withstands repeated steam autoclaving, dry heat sterilization, and alcohol rinses without pitting, tarnishing, or losing structural integrity.
• Smooth Polished Surface Finish: Mirror-polished finish minimizes sample adhesion, cross-contamination, and carryover between weighings while facilitating rapid, thorough cleaning.
