Parr Reaction Bottle 250 ml 60 PSI

Parr 250 mL Clear Borosilicate Glass Reaction Bottle, 60 PSI (66CA2)

The Parr 66CA2 Reaction Bottle is a precision-engineered pressure vessel component designed for low-pressure gas-liquid chemical reactions, catalytic hydrogenations, and liquid sample shaking. Constructed from heavy-walled, high-purity borosilicate glass, this 250 mL vessel provides exceptional mechanical strength and chemical inertness against aggressive organic solvents, strong acids, and reducing agents. Rated for working internal pressures up to 60 PSI (4.1 bar), the 66CA2 features a thick reinforced neck and thread profile optimized for seal retention under dynamic shaking conditions. Engineered primarily for integration into Parr Series 3910 and 3920 Shaker-Type Hydrogenation Apparatus, this reaction bottle enables clear visual monitoring of color changes, precipitation, and phase boundaries throughout sensitive bioprocessing and organic synthesis workflows.

Technical Performance & Structural Attributes

• Heavy-Walled Borosilicate Glass Construction: Premium Annealed Type 1 Class A borosilicate glass resists thermal shock, chemical etching, and mechanical fatigue under cyclic pressure loading.
• 60 PSI Operational Pressure Limit: Engineered and hydrostatically proof-tested for continuous gas charging up to 60 PSI at ambient laboratory temperatures.
• Reinforced Threaded Neck Contour: Thickened glass neck profile ensures secure torque distribution when mated with Parr pressure sealing caps and stopper assemblies.
• High Chemical Inertness: Non-reactive interior surface prevents heavy metal contamination and leaching during delicate noble metal catalytic reactions.
• Shaker Apparatus Adaptability: Precision outer diameter profile fits standard Parr bottle clamps and protective mesh safety sleeves for high-frequency orbital or reciprocating shaking.
