Griffin Beakers

These Griffin beakers are available in a variety of plastics to fit your application. ETFE* (ethylene tetrafluoroethylene) provides high chemical resistance and very high thermal stability (-100 to +150 C). PMP (polymethylpentene) provides glass-like clarity, while PP (polypropylene) is highly transparent and well-suited for general purpose use. Meets the requirements of ISO 7056 (except V110204-V111004). To preserve markings on products with colored overprinting(cat. no. V605081-V617081, V60503-V61703, V110204-V111004), cleaning at no higher than 60 C is recommended. For autoclaving, the design with raised graduations (cat. no. V606941-V617941, V60695-V61795) is recommended.

*Limited availability of the ETFE beakers.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Are the graduations on your volumetric plasticware molded on the inside, outside, or simply screen printed?
None of the graduations are molded on the interior. They would be very difficult to mold in that way, and would interfere with the accuracy. Exterior molding also allows for a better grip on the item. However, it does differ by product, specifically:

Graduated cylinders: All models have molded graduations. Some have screened overprint.
Volumetric flasks: All models have a scored graduation, with coloring added.
Erlenmeyer flasks: All models have screen printed graduations.
Griffin Beakers: Most models have molded graduations (with the exception cat. no. V110204-V111004, ETFE Griffin beakers, and some small volume sizes). Some have screened overprint.
Graduated pitchers: All models, with the exception of the nesting models, have molded graduations. Some have screened overprint. Nesting models have printed graduations.

2. How should I clean my volumetric plasticware?
Polyolefins, such as PP and PMP, as well as fluoroplastics (ETFE), have water-repellent surfaces that are very durable and easy to clean. For cleaning, depending on the level of contamination, commercially available neutral or alkaline detergents (i.e. Mucasol) can be used. Please note that no scrubbing agents or scouring pads should be used for labware made from plastics.Plastic labware can be cleaned and dried in a laboratory diswasher, noting the temperature limits of the individual products. Due to their light weight, securing the labware with washing nets is recommended; and plastic-coated wire baskets will better protect against scratching.Plastic labware can also be cleaned in an ultrasonic bath. However, direct contact with the acoustic membrane should be avoided.

3. Can I autoclave my volumetric plasticware?
The product description and/or specifications state whether or not the product can be autoclaved (note the temperature limits!). If the product is autoclavable, the recommended protocol is 20 minutes at 121 C (2 bar), according to DIN EN 285.Prior to autoclaving plastic labware, ensure that no residual contamination remains on the item. Otherwise, the residual contamination will bake on solidly during the autoclaving process. Even substances that have no effect on the plastic at room temperature can have negative effects on the plastic during the autoclaving process, including persistant clouding. Additionally, microorganisms might not be killed effectively if they are protected by the residual contamination.

WARNING These products can expose you to chemicals including Carbon black (airborne, unbound particles of respirable size), which is known to the State of California to cause cancer, Di-n-butyl Phthalate (DBP), which is known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm, and Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA), which is known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm.
