Glass Microfiber Extraction Thimble, 16x50mm ID x Height, Borosilicate, 1.0mm Wall, 25/Pk SKU: LE-GT9-103

Featuring binderless borosilicate glass microfiber technology delivering superior chemical resistance and thermal stability for demanding Soxhlet extraction applications. 100% pure borosilicate glass construction eliminates organic binders that could contaminate analytical results, while the seamless 1.0mm wall thickness maintains structural integrity during aggressive solvent extractions. The 16mm internal diameter x 50mm height configuration provides optimal sample capacity for routine biochemical analysis and environmental monitoring protocols requiring validated gravimetric methods.

Key Glass Microfiber Characteristics

• Binderless borosilicate construction eliminates organic contamination sources for ultra-pure analytical extractions
• Exceptional thermal stability withstands continuous operation to 500°C without degradation or dimensional changes
• High degree of air permeability optimizes solvent flow rates while maintaining superior particle retention
• Hydrophobic surface properties resist moisture interference during organic solvent extraction cycles
• Superior chemical compatibility handles acidic gases and aggressive solvents that attack cellulose alternatives

Key Construction Characteristics

• Consistent 1.0mm wall thickness ensures uniform extraction flow patterns and mechanical strength during handling
• Smooth interior surface minimizes sample retention and facilitates complete recovery of extracted compounds
• Seamless construction eliminates weak points that could compromise thimble integrity under thermal cycling
• 16mm x 50mm dimensions accommodate standard sample volumes while fitting most commercial Soxhlet extraction units
• All-glass design permits visual monitoring of extraction progress and enables direct gravimetric weighing

LE-GT9-103 thimbles deliver exceptional mechanical strength and retention characteristics optimized for hot environment applications, accelerating your analytical workflows when processing samples requiring elevated temperature extractions. Outstanding solvent compatibility with aggressive chemicals that are incompatible with cellulose thimbles maximizes your analytical flexibility for lipid extractions, pesticide residue analysis, and environmental pollutant monitoring. The reusable glass construction transforms these thimbles into cost-effective analytical tools, providing long-term performance assurance for your critical biochemical analysis and gravimetric determination applications demanding both chemical purity and reliable extraction efficiency.
