You pick from our clear glass vial collection, all with gasketed black-plastic screw caps. The small vials hold approx 2ml and measure 1-3/8” tall x 9/16” dia with a 9/32 (approx 7mm) ID. The larger vials hold approx 5ml and measure 2-1/4” tall x 19/32” dia with an 11/32” (7mm) ID.

Puns-R-Us. This white coffee mug has pi-Lingual printed on it, along with a bevy of geometric diagrams and equations, plus pi carried to 50 decimal places. Try not to use while eating a piece of pie, because there are some limits to what people will tolerate.

Stainless steel surgical scalpel blades, size #22. Great for hobbies and crafts. 

But science teachers can't work without them. Experiment with this good-quality manual vacuum pump made of durable polychloroethylene plastic. Works with a pistol-grip action and pulls up to 2" Hg. Includes a 17" length of clear vinyl, 1/4" ID tubing, and a release valve.

Or funnelette? Whatever. It's a polypropylene mini-funnel, for putting a little something through little openings. Measures 2-1/4" long OA, with a 35mm dia mouth and a fluted, 4mm ID neck.

This small chrome constricting clamp is designed for controlling IV drips, but no doubt will inspire other uses for crafters, jewelry makers and those who want to control the flow from small pumps. Measure 2" x 1-1/4" OA when fully open. Flat clamp screws open to approx 5/8". The clamping surface is approx 3/4" x 1/4".

Getting tired of buying them and trimming them and losing them? Get rid of wicks altogether with this nifty little alcohol burner with a copper capillary tube in place of a cotton wick. Burns 90ml of denatured alcohol and comes with a heat shield (packed inside the reservoir) and a burner cap. Don't forget to remove the little rubber plug - it's there to cover the holes in the copper tube when not in use. And this is lab equipment, so resist the temptation to use it under a chafing dish; initially, it flares up a tad more than is good for Swedish meatballs.

We’ve never seen anything quite like these little clear glass vials, which means they must have myriad uses, particularly at this price. The large one is 1-3/4” tall x 15/16” dia with a shoulder and a 1/2” ID lipped mouth on the top, leading into a 1” deep conical cavity. The bottom has a 5/8” mouth, with an internal lip, and opens into a cavity around the little conical reservoir. So you can fill either end. Which would hold maybe a couple of ccs one way, or 1/4 oz the other way. The little one is the same, but is 1-9/16” tall x 5/8” dia and a 1/4” ID mouth on top, 7/16” on the bottom. We’re thinking obscure lab experiments, or chimneys for streetlamps in model railroads. Or something.

You could melt metals in these ceramic crucibles, or you could just line them up and look at them, they're such pure design objects. Not bad as condiment pots, either. You pick the 50ml, measuring 1-3/4" tall x 1-7/8" ID at the top, or the 100ml, 2-1/4" tall x 2-3/8" ID at the top. White, with unglazed bottoms and lips, in an inverted bell shape with a hole for a wire.

You’ll get (10) pieces of clear acrylic medical grade tubing for your water fountains, Halloween displays or other hobby projects. Each measures 32” long x 5/32” OD x 1/8” ID. Made right here in the US of A.

The sport of the future? No, cork-lined polystyrene boxes for holding microscope slides, complete with numbered slots and inventory sheets on the lids. The boxes are 8-3/4" x 6-3/4" x 1-1/3" with hinged lids. They are stackable, and you might get them in a variety of colors.

Hard polypropylene beakers, milky white with a fine pouring spout. No good for flames, but great for low-temp lab applications. Also useful in the kitchen, the garage, or (the big one especially) as a plant watering can.

You pick small, medium or large borosilicate reagent bottles, all with ground glass stopper. Small is 60ml, 3-5/8" tall x 1-5/8" dia with a 7/8" long neck and a 1/2" ID mouth. Medium is 125ml, 4-3/4" tall x 2-1/8" dia with a 1" tall neck and an 11/16" ID mouth. Large is 250ml, 5-3/8" tall x 2-3/4" dia with a 1" long neck and a nearly 3/4" ID mouth. Made in India.

A great way to get focused.

And a pestle to match. This 900ml, large-capacity mortar and pestle set is made for the lab but would also be proud to serve in your kitchen. (Call it the Guac Pot.) Mortar measures 6-1/4” across x 3-3/4” tall with a 7-1/2” long pestle with a 1-7/8” dia head, big enough to pestle anything into submission.
