Glass Microfiber Extraction Thimble - 33mm x 100mm ID, Binderless Borosilicate, 500°C, 25/Pk SKU: LE-GT9-123

Featuring binderless borosilicate glass microfiber construction delivering exceptional thermal stability and chemical resistance for demanding Soxhlet extraction applications. These 100% borosilicate glass microfiber thimbles provide seamless 1.5mm wall thickness with smooth interior surfaces optimizing solvent flow and sample retention. Operating temperatures up to 500°C enable processing of aggressive solvents incompatible with cellulose alternatives while maintaining dimensional stability throughout extraction cycles.

Key Glass Microfiber Membrane Characteristics

• 100% pure borosilicate glass binderless microfiber construction eliminates organic contamination and binder extractables
• Temperature resistance to 500°C withstands extreme thermal conditions during high-temperature extractions
• Hydrophobic surface chemistry resists moisture interference and maintains structural integrity in acidic environments
• 0.7 micron particle retention efficiency captures fine particulates while optimizing extraction flow rates
• Complete absence of binders, glue, or additives makes it ideal for high-concentration acids and aggressive solvents

Key Construction Characteristics

• Precision 33mm inner diameter x 100mm height dimensions fit standard Soxhlet extraction apparatus configurations
• Consistent 1.5mm wall thickness provides superior mechanical strength and retention capabilities
• Seamless construction with smooth interior surface eliminates sample hang-up and facilitates complete extraction
• Non-sterile designation suitable for analytical and research applications requiring ultra-pure extraction media
• 25-pack configuration provides convenient inventory management for high-volume laboratory operations

LE-GT9-123 thimbles excel in applications including analysis of hot and acidic gases, pesticide residue determination, oil/fat content analysis of solid foods, and grease analysis of solid wastes. Superior performance above 120°C where cellulose thimble compatibility limitations restrict analytical flexibility, enabling your laboratory to process challenging samples requiring extreme temperature tolerance. Critical extraction applications including separation of particulate dust from gas streams, emission testing at high temperature, and smoke stack gas monitoring benefit from the exceptional chemical inertness and thermal stability that transforms these thimbles into reliable analytical tools for your most demanding environmental monitoring and industrial testing protocols.
