Find Out the Types of Beakers We Have

LDP has a very wide range of beakers categorized based on material, shape, and use. Here is our description of our types:

Glass Beakers

Our glass beakers are constructed of high-quality borosilicate glass, which is resistant to high heat, chemical resistance, and harsh laboratory uses. We recommend them to heat solutions, titrate, and mix chemicals.

• Excellent thermal shock resistance
• Clear, easy-to-read graduations
• Autoclavable and reusable

Polypropylene Beakers

Our polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), or polymethylpentene (PMP) beakers provide a lightweight, impact, chemical-proof alternative to glass. General lab laboratory use.

• Impact and chemically resistant
• Field and school ready
• Sizes available with and without graduations

Disposable Lab Beakers

Our disposable beakers are best for one-time use and are ideal for contamination-free and safe procedures. Disposable beakers are widely used in diagnostic labs, quality control labs, and pharmaceutical manufacturing.

• Economical
• No cleaning or sterilization required
• Simple to use for high-throughput labs

Graduated Beakers

Graduated beakers offer high accuracy for volume measurement with embossed or printed graduations. They come in glass and plastic versions.

• High visibility graduations
• In metric and imperial graduations
• Suitable for qualitative and quantitative work

Griffin Style Beakers

The Griffin beaker, or low-form beaker, is the most popular beaker shape and has a large spout and mouth. This beaker is ideal for general lab use.

• Short stature with wide base to provide stability
• Ideal for slow heat and mixing
• Widespread sight in any lab usage

Low Form Beakers

Similar to Griffin but smaller in size, low form beakers are tough and less tiring to utilize heating and mixing processes.

• Simple to stack and store
• Compatible for magnetic stirrer

Tall Form Beakers

Whenever procedures require a more profound vessel and reducing evaporation, tall form beakers prove useful in titrations and layering solutions.

• More control of mixing with smaller profile for leveling
• Less surface area exposure

Beaker Sets & Covers

Find complete sets of beakers for kit-type experiments and educational laboratory use, and beaker covers to keep processes free from contamination or evaporation.

FAQs

❓What types of beakers are best for laboratory use?

Answer: The best beakers for lab use depend on your application. Glass beakers (borosilicate) are ideal for heating and chemical reactions, while plastic beakers are better for fieldwork or when breakage risk is a concern. Disposable beakers are suitable for single-use scenarios and contamination-sensitive procedures.

❓What is the difference between Griffin and tall form beakers?

Answer: Griffin beakers, also known as low-form beakers, have a wider diameter and are shorter in height, making them ideal for general mixing and heating. Tall form beakers are narrower and taller, offering more precision in volume control and reducing evaporation.

❓Are plastic beakers autoclavable?

Answer: Some plastic beakers made from polypropylene (PP) or PMP (polymethylpentene) are autoclavable and can withstand sterilization at high temperatures. Always check the manufacturer's specifications before autoclaving.

❓Can I measure liquid volume accurately with a beaker?

Answer: Beakers offer approximate volume measurements and are not designed for high-precision work. For accurate volume measurement, use graduated cylinders or volumetric flasks.

❓What sizes do laboratory beakers come in?

Answer: Beakers are available in a wide range of sizes, typically from 10 mL up to 5,000 mL or more. Common lab sizes include 100 mL, 250 mL, 500 mL, 1,000 mL, and 2,000 mL.

❓What is a beaker made of?

Answer: Beakers can be made from borosilicate glass (heat and chemical resistant), polypropylene or PMP plastic (lightweight and break-resistant), or polystyrene for disposable options.

❓What are beaker covers used for?

Answer: Beaker covers help prevent contamination, reduce evaporation, and maintain sample integrity. They are often used in microbiology, chemistry, and sample storage applications.
