Glass Extraction Thimble, Grade 603G, 1.5mm Thick, 23.8x68mm (25 pcs) SKU: 10371114

Glass Fiber (GF) Extraction Thimble - 10371114

Gravimetric determination of airborne particulates and semi-volatile organic compounds requires an extraction thimble that withstands both high-temperature sampling and solvent extraction. Drawing on deep manufacturing experience, manufactured by Whatman under Cytiva's quality infrastructure, this device benefits from a filtration heritage that spans laboratory, environmental, and industrial applications. Glass microfiber matrix delivers fine particle retention through depth filtration, capturing particulates down to sub-micron levels for demanding analytical applications. For this reason, manufacturing quality controls ensure that each thimble meets the specifications required for validated extraction methods in environmental, food safety, and industrial laboratories.

Key Thimble Characteristics

• Material temperature tolerance up to 500°C supports the thermal requirements of the intended extraction and sample preparation workflows.
• Borosilicate glass microfiber construction provides broad chemical resistance to acids, bases, and aggressive organic solvents encountered in demanding extraction workflows.
• Sustained thermal stability allows direct use in hot gas sampling applications where the thimble functions as both the collection medium and the extraction vessel.
• High-purity glass composition supports trace-level environmental and industrial analytical methods with stringent background contamination requirements.
• Overall length of 68 mm accommodates the sample volume requirements of common analytical extraction methods.

Your extraction workflow depends on a thimble that maintains its structural integrity and retention characteristics throughout the entire analytical procedure. With these demands in mind, fine particle retention through glass microfiber depth filtration gives your laboratory exceptional sample containment for demanding analytical matrices. Standardize on Whatman filtration to bring the consistency and documented performance of a century-old filtration brand to your laboratory workflows.
