Educational Benefits & Key Features
Feature: Three-Prong Jaw Architecture.Benefit: Provides three-point contact for cylindrical or irregular glassware, preventing the rotational slippage often encountered with traditional two-prong clamps during complex assemblies.
Feature: Protective Cork/Rubber Lining.Benefit: Acts as a mechanical and thermal buffer for borosilicate glass, reducing the risk of stress fractures caused by mechanical over-tightening or sudden thermal expansion.
Feature: Dual-Screw Adjustment Mechanism.Benefit: Enables independent control of jaw opening and centering, allowing students to align condensers perfectly over heat sources for efficient reagent recovery.
Feature: Pressure Die-Cast Alloy Construction.Benefit: Delivers superior structural rigidity and minimal thermal expansion, ensuring that heavy, liquid-filled apparatus remains stable throughout long-duration experiments.
Feature: Chemical-Resistant Powder Coating.Benefit: Protects the metallurgical substrate from degradation when exposed to corrosive vapors such as Hydrochloric Acid or Ammonia, ensuring long-term institutional durability.
