VWR Lab Jack 8 in. x 8 in. Laboratory Support Jack Adjustable to 13 in.

The VWR 12620-904 is a heavy-duty, adjustable laboratory support jack designed for the precise positioning and stable lifting of lab equipment. Whether supporting a heating mantle, a large beaker, or a magnetic stirrer, this 8 x 8 inch jack provides the strength and stability required for critical experiments. Its rugged scissor-lift mechanism is engineered for smooth operation, ensuring that sensitive setups can be adjusted vertically without sudden shifts or vibrations.

Technical Performance and Design

• Heavy-Duty Scissor Mechanism: Utilizes a precision-machined scissor lift that distributes the load evenly across the support structure for maximum stability at any height.

• Large Work Surface: The 8 x 8 inch (20.3 x 20.3 cm) platform provides a generous area for larger laboratory vessels, ensuring they remain centered and secure.

• Anodized Aluminum Construction: Both the top and bottom plates are manufactured from high-strength aluminum with an anodized finish for excellent resistance to chemicals, spills, and corrosion.

• Smooth Vertical Travel: Features an oversized, ergonomic adjustment knob that allows for fine-tuned height control, even when the jack is under a heavy load.
