Glass Extraction Thimble, Grade 603G, 1.5mm Thick, 25x100mm (25 pcs) SKU: 10371019

Glass Fiber (GF) Extraction Thimble - 10371019

Soxhlet extraction of industrial waste, environmental particulates, and biological matrices exposed to aggressive chemical environments demands a thimble built for chemical resistance. Whatman applies over a century of filtration media expertise to this device, manufacturing under the quality standards that established its products as global laboratory references. Glass microfiber matrix delivers fine particle retention through depth filtration, capturing particulates down to sub-micron levels for demanding analytical applications. In turn, consistent retention characteristics and dimensional precision ensure dependable performance from the first thimble in the pack to the last.

Key Thimble Characteristics

• Borosilicate glass microfiber construction provides broad chemical resistance to acids, bases, and aggressive organic solvents encountered in demanding extraction workflows.
• Borosilicate glass composition maintains dimensional stability across thermal cycling between ambient temperature and furnace pre-conditioning conditions without structural degradation.
• Sustained thermal stability allows direct use in hot gas sampling applications where the thimble functions as both the collection medium and the extraction vessel.
• Inert glass construction contributes no organic extractable background, supporting analytical methods where thimble-derived contamination would compromise results.
• Borosilicate glass maintains dimensional stability through repeated thermal cycling between ambient conditions and elevated pre-conditioning temperatures.

Reproducible extraction performance across production lots means your laboratory can focus on interpreting data rather than troubleshooting consumable variability. Addressing this directly, reliable performance in both Soxhlet extraction and direct hot gas sampling gives your laboratory a versatile high-temperature extraction medium for diverse analytical applications. Standardize on Whatman filtration to bring the consistency and documented performance of a century-old filtration brand to your laboratory workflows.
