Glass Microfiber Extraction Thimble, 57x315mm ID x Height, Borosilicate, 2.0mm Wall, 25/pk SKU: LE-GT9-138

Featuring 100% pure borosilicate glass binderless microfiber construction delivering exceptional chemical resistance and thermal stability for demanding Soxhlet extraction applications. The 57mm x 315mm (ID x Height) configuration provides optimal sample capacity while maintaining consistent 2.0mm wall thickness and smooth interior surface for reliable solvent flow and complete extraction cycles. Superior mechanical strength and retention characteristics ensure dimensional stability throughout extended extraction protocols requiring acidic solvents or elevated temperatures.

Key Glass Microfiber Construction Characteristics

• Binderless borosilicate glass microfiber eliminates organic contamination and maintains chemical purity throughout extraction cycles
• Seamless construction with consistent 2.0mm wall thickness prevents sample loss and ensures uniform solvent distribution
• Smooth interior surface minimizes sample retention while maximizing extraction efficiency in automated Soxhlet systems
• Superior mechanical strength withstands handling stresses during sample loading and thimble installation procedures
• Hydrophobic surface characteristics optimize solvent wetting and drainage for complete extraction recovery

Key Performance Characteristics

• 57mm internal diameter accommodates large sample volumes while fitting standard Soxhlet extraction apparatus configurations
• 315mm height provides extended extraction chamber capacity for complex matrices requiring prolonged solvent contact
• Chemical resistance to most organic solvents including toluene, hexane, and chlorinated compounds used in fat and oil analysis
• Temperature stability supports extraction protocols requiring elevated solvent reflux temperatures without dimensional change
• 25-pack quantity delivers cost-effective supply management for high-throughput analytical laboratories

LE-GT9-138 thimbles excel in Soxhlet extraction, air and waste gas analysis, smoke stack gas monitoring, analysis of pesticide residues, oil/fat content determination of solid foods, and oil and grease analysis of solid wastes. Outstanding chemical compatibility with acidic and organic solvents accelerates your analytical workflows while delivering reliable extraction efficiency. Gravimetric methods for hot environments and acidic gases as well as extraction methods common to biochemical analysis benefit from the exceptional purity and mechanical integrity, providing performance assurance for your critical analytical determinations requiring validated extraction protocols and contamination-free results.
