Tripod, Stainless Steel Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Tripod, Stainless Steel (Product Code: SLE/CH/237) is a 200mm tall heating stand with a triangular stainless steel top of 125mm side length, steel legs and rubber feet. Placed over a Bunsen burner or spirit lamp, it supports a wire gauze with a beaker or flask, or a pipeclay triangle holding a crucible, at a steady working height. It is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, and is a basic item of chemistry lab equipment in India for school and college practical benches.

Specifications

Typical Use

The tripod is the base of most heating setups in a school laboratory. With a wire gauze on top it carries a beaker of water for a water bath, a flask being brought to the boil, or an evaporating dish concentrating a salt solution for crystallisation. With a pipeclay triangle in place of the gauze it holds a crucible for strong heating — burning magnesium ribbon, driving water from hydrated copper sulfate or finding the mass of a residue. The stainless steel construction resists the rust that plain steel tripods develop after repeated spills and heating, and the rubber feet help keep the tripod steady on the bench.

Check that your burner fits under the 200mm top with the flame just reaching the gauze, and stand the tripod on a heat-resistant mat. The metal stays hot long after the burner is turned off, so move it only once it has cooled or use tongs, and keep the rubber feet well clear of the flame. Crystallising a salt in an evaporating dish and heating a crucible, with crucible tongs close at hand, are standard school practicals built around this stand.

Frequently Asked Questions

How tall is the tripod and how big is the top?
It is 200mm tall with a triangular stainless steel top of 125mm side length.

Why choose stainless steel?
Stainless steel resists corrosion from spills and repeated heating, and it wipes clean easily, so the tripod keeps its appearance over years of use.

Is a wire gauze included?
No, the gauze and pipeclay triangle are sold separately. See the related items above.

Which burners fit underneath?
Any burner that fits under a 200mm top with the flame reaching the gauze. If you are unsure about a particular burner, ask us before ordering.

Can the rubber feet take heat?
The rubber feet are there for grip on the bench. Keep the burner flame under the centre of the top so it does not reach the feet.

Do you supply tripods for a whole laboratory?
Yes, class sets for schools and colleges in India and international markets are quoted on request via our contact page.
