Autoclavable PP Stirring Rod with Spatula

Polypropylene stirring rod with an integrated spatula at the opposite end. Combines in a single implement what typically requires two: stirring solutions and handling solids or pastes.

Specifications

• Material: Polypropylene (PP)
• End 1: Smooth rod for manual stirring
• End 2: Integrated spatula
• Autoclavable: Yes, 121 °C

Typical Applications

Suitable for any laboratory bench where work involves solutions, suspensions or powdered solids. Commonly used in chemistry, biology, pharmaceutical and quality control laboratories.

Particularly useful where bench space is restricted or where reducing the number of implements to clean and sterilise is a practical consideration.

PP vs. Glass

Polypropylene will not shatter if dropped, weighs less than glass, and can be autoclaved directly — an advantage over glass rods when protocols require moist heat sterilisation. Resistant to dilute acids, bases and most common polar solvents.
