Grade 603 Standard Cellulose Extraction Thimble, 25x60mm, Thickness 1.5mm, 25/Pk SKU: 10350215

Cellulose Extraction Thimble - 10350215

Efficient solid-liquid extraction for environmental compliance testing begins with a thimble that balances solvent permeability with the mechanical strength to contain fine-particle samples. As a Whatman product, this device carries the brand recognition and documented performance history that supports specification in standardized analytical methods. Natural cellulose fiber construction enables rapid solvent wetting and efficient permeation, reducing extraction cycle times while maintaining quantitative sample retention. In sum, consistent retention characteristics and dimensional precision ensure dependable performance from the first thimble in the pack to the last.

Key Thimble Characteristics

• 60 mm thimble length provides sufficient sample capacity while positioning correctly above the siphon tube in standard extraction apparatus.
• Cellulose fiber construction provides a cost-effective extraction medium for high-volume laboratories processing large numbers of routine fat, oil, and residue samples.
• Uniform wall construction maintains consistent solvent flow distribution across the thimble surface, preventing channeling that could reduce extraction efficiency.
• Mechanical strength sufficient to maintain structural integrity when saturated with solvent and loaded with sample, even during extended multi-hour extraction cycles.
• Natural cellulose fiber composition enables rapid solvent wetting without pre-conditioning, reducing setup time for routine extraction procedures.

Reproducible extraction performance across production lots means your laboratory can focus on interpreting data rather than troubleshooting consumable variability. Uniform wall construction and rapid solvent wetting reduce your per-sample preparation time while maintaining the quantitative recovery your analytical methods demand. Integrate Whatman filtration into your protocols to benefit from the brand recognition, lot documentation, and performance history that analytical laboratories trust worldwide.
