Alcohol burners supplied by LabChoice Australia provide a stable, controlled flame source for heating, sterilisation and demonstration work across teaching, research and industrial laboratory environments. Constructed from high quality glass, stainless steel or aluminium depending on the model, these burners offer strong chemical resistance, reliable thermal performance and long service life. Their simple, efficient design makes them ideal for applications requiring gentle, consistent heating without the need for gas infrastructure or high temperature flame control systems.
Each burner features a securely fitted wick assembly that supports smooth capillary action and steady flame output. The adjustable wick height allows technicians to regulate flame size to suit tasks such as heating small volumes, sterilising metal instruments, demonstrating combustion principles or supporting microscale experiments. Glass models manufactured from BORO 3.3 borosilicate comply with ISO 3585 and ASTM E438 Type 1 Class A material standards, ensuring excellent resistance to thermal shock and compatibility with common laboratory solvents used as fuel.
Alcohol burners are widely used in educational laboratories, field stations, microbiology workstations and analytical environments where low cost, portable and maintenance free heating is required. Their enclosed fuel reservoir and stable base design help minimise spill risk, while the extinguishing cap allows safe, rapid flame control. Stainless steel and aluminium variations provide enhanced durability for field and outdoor use.
Every alcohol burner supplied by LabChoice Australia undergoes ISO 9001 aligned quality control inspection. This includes verification of wick function, reservoir integrity, cap fitment, dimensional accuracy and overall flame stability. Glass models are checked for clarity, wall uniformity and absence of defects, while metal models undergo surface finish and structural strength assessment. These rigorous evaluations ensure that each burner delivers dependable, safe and consistent performance across routine and teaching laboratory workflows.
