Glass Blowing Tube, BORO 3.3, 10 mm OD with 2.5 mm Thick Wall

Description

The Glass Blowing Tube, BORO 3.3, 10 mm OD, also known as borosilicate glass tubing for glassblowing, is designed for compatible laboratory glassworking, shaping and educational demonstration work. This tube is made from borosilicate glass, with BORO 3.3 listed in the product title. Borosilicate glass is suitable for many laboratory glassworking applications where thermal resistance and controlled heating behaviour are required. The supplied specification lists 10 mm OD with a 2.5 mm wall thickness, giving the tube a thicker wall profile than standard thin-wall glass tubing for suitable manipulation and forming tasks. The tube can be used for compatible glassblowing techniques such as heating, shaping, forming and controlled glass manipulation under approved laboratory or workshop conditions.

The lengths of tubing are listed as approximate, with a ±5 cm variation on length, so users should confirm the required finished length before ordering for size-critical applications. This product is suitable for school science laboratories, university teaching laboratories, glassworking demonstrations, research facilities and laboratory preparation areas requiring borosilicate glass tubing. Users should confirm tube length, outside diameter, wall thickness, heating method, glass compatibility, annealing requirements and glassworking procedure before use. Glassblowing involves high temperatures, flame and hot glass. Heated glass may look cool but can still cause severe burns. Use suitable eye protection, heat-resistant tools, ventilation and approved glassworking procedures.

Do not use with hazardous fumes, incompatible chemicals or pressure applications unless the complete setup has been assessed and approved. This product is intended for laboratory or educational settings only and should be used under appropriate supervision. This item is supplied as the selected BORO 3.3 glass blowing tube only. Burner, torch, gas supply, annealing equipment, glass cutter, PPE, stands, clamps and additional glassworking accessories are not included unless specified separately.

LabChoice Australia supplies BORO 3.3 Glass Blowing Tubes and laboratory glassware accessories for school science laboratories, university teaching laboratories, research facilities and educational laboratories requiring practical tubing for glassworking and demonstration use.
