Wire Gauze (Pack of 12)

This pack of 12 laboratory wire gauze mats provides a practical supply for classroom heating setups. Placed on a compatible tripod or support, wire gauze forms a supporting layer beneath suitable laboratory vessels and helps spread heat from the burner.

Prepare multiple practical stations with a mat at each supported heating position. Check the fit of the gauze, stand and vessel before starting your experiment.

Confirm before ordering

The earlier listing gives an approximate standard size of 150 × 150 mm and mentions a ceramic or asbestos-free centre, but these details are not confirmed for the supplied pack. Verify actual dimensions, centre composition and supplier material documentation before purchase. Do not assume universal tripod compatibility or a specific temperature or load rating.

Handling and care

Use only with a stable support and suitable laboratory glassware. Wire gauze does not guarantee protection against glass cracking or thermal shock. Allow it to cool before handling and replace mats with damaged mesh or deteriorating centres. Follow your laboratory's heating and protective-equipment procedures.
