Grade 603T Standard Cellulose Extraction Thimble, 33 x 31x80mm, Thickness 1.0 mm, 25/Pk SKU: 10350437

Cellulose Extraction Thimble - 10350437

Validated analytical methods for fat determination and residue screening specify extraction thimbles that deliver traceable quality and reproducible retention from lot to lot. As a Whatman product, this device carries the brand recognition and documented performance history that supports specification in standardized analytical methods. Consistent wall thickness throughout the thimble body promotes uniform solvent flow and complete sample contact across the entire extraction surface. Precision-manufactured dimensions ensure optimal fit within standard extraction apparatus, promoting complete solvent contact and quantitative analyte recovery.

Key Thimble Characteristics

• Uniform wall construction maintains consistent solvent flow distribution across the thimble surface, preventing channeling that could reduce extraction efficiency.
• Dimensional precision matched to standard Soxhlet apparatus ensures proper clearance within the extractor body for unobstructed solvent siphoning.
• Cellulose fiber matrix enables rapid solvent wetting and efficient permeation without pre-conditioning steps, reducing total extraction preparation time.
• Compatible with standard Soxhlet extraction solvents including hexane, petroleum ether, dichloromethane, diethyl ether, and chloroform.
• Consistent 1 mm wall thickness throughout the thimble body ensures uniform solvent permeation and predictable extraction performance.

When validated methods require documented consumable performance, your extraction thimble must deliver traceable quality and reproducible results. Low ash content and minimal fiber shedding ensure your weight-based determinations reflect extracted analyte mass rather than thimble-derived residue contributions. Choose Whatman products to ensure that your filtration step meets the quality expectations established by one of the most recognized names in laboratory science.
