Wide Mouth Jar 960mL by Globe Scientific – 120mm Opening Lab Bottle

Description

Product Overview

The Globe Scientific 6406 wide mouth jar is engineered for laboratory professionals who demand reliability, ease of use, and durability. With a generous 960 mL capacity and a 120 mm opening, this jar accommodates bulk reagents, drying agents, and sample collections without the need for frequent transfers. Constructed from high‑impact polystyrene (PS), the container resists cracking and chemical exposure, while the screw‑cap provides a tight seal to prevent contamination and evaporation.

Measuring 4‑3/8″ in diameter and 3‑3/4″ in height, the jar fits standard laboratory shelving and storage racks, optimizing space efficiency. The design includes a wide mouth that simplifies loading of powders, liquids, and solid samples, reducing spillage and saving valuable time during routine procedures. Each jar is supplied with a separate screw cap, ensuring that the sealing component remains pristine until use.

Usage

Designed for versatility, this wide mouth jar excels in a variety of laboratory settings. Researchers use it for drying hygroscopic substances, storing bulk chemicals, and preparing reagents for analytical testing. Its robust PS material makes it suitable for both ambient and refrigerated environments, allowing seamless integration into workflows ranging from organic synthesis to quality‑control labs.

The 120 mm opening facilitates quick addition and removal of materials, which is especially valuable during high‑throughput operations where efficiency is paramount. The secure screw‑cap ensures that volatile compounds remain sealed, protecting both the sample integrity and laboratory safety. Whether you are a chemist, biologist, or materials scientist, this jar meets the demands of precise, repeatable experiments.

FAQ

What types of chemicals can be stored in this PS jar?

The jar is compatible with most non‑reactive liquids, powders, and solids. It is not recommended for strong acids or bases that may degrade polystyrene.

Yes, the PS material tolerates typical laboratory refrigeration temperatures, but prolonged exposure to extreme cold should be avoided to prevent brittleness.

Is the screw cap compatible with other Globe Scientific jars?

The cap is designed specifically for the 6406 model; while it may fit other jars of the same diameter, we recommend using the matching cap for optimal sealing.

How many jars are included in the pack?

The product is sold as a pack of 45 individual jars, each with its own screw cap packaged separately for maximum protection.

What is the best way to clean the jar after use?

Rinse with warm water and a mild detergent, then allow to air‑dry. For stubborn residues, a brief soak in an appropriate solvent followed by thorough rinsing is effective.
