Students use the rod to dissolve solids, mix reagents before a reaction and guide liquid down the rod when pouring from a beaker into a funnel or flask. The 250 mm length keeps the hand well above the rim of a typical beaker.
Stir gently with a circular motion rather than tapping the walls of the vessel, and rinse the rod before moving to a different solution. Very hot liquids and strong organic solvents can soften plastics, so use a glass rod for those jobs in the chemistry lab.
This stirring rod is produced by ScienceLab, the brand of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which acts as the OEM and supplies it directly from its own factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. The company is incorporated under CIN U29309HR2020PTC087597, and its production site at 449, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha holds Factory Licence AMB-ONLINE-CHD-J-414.

The Stirring Rod, Polypropylene is 7 mm in diameter and 250 mm long. That length suits stirring in beakers and flasks on a school bench while keeping fingers clear of the solution being mixed.
Is the plastic stirring rod chemical resistant?
Yes. The Stirring Rod, Polypropylene is made of chemical-resistant polypropylene and suits the common aqueous solutions used in teaching labs. For very hot liquids or strong organic solvents, use a glass stirring rod instead.
Why choose polypropylene instead of a glass stirring rod?
A Stirring Rod, Polypropylene does not shatter the way glass can when it is dropped or knocked against a beaker, which makes it practical for junior classes. A glass rod remains the better choice for high temperatures or solvents that affect plastics.
Who manufactures the Stirring Rod, Polypropylene?
The Stirring Rod, Polypropylene is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Buyers get quotations, repeat supplies and bulk orders direct from the manufacturer.
How should the stirring rod be cleaned?
Rinse the Stirring Rod, Polypropylene with water straight after use, wash it with a mild laboratory detergent if residue remains, and let it dry before storing. Rinse it between different solutions during a practical so one reagent is not carried into another.
Can I order stirring rods in bulk?
