Hotplates and stirrers are essential benchtop tools used to heat, mix, or simultaneously heat and stir liquid solutions in laboratory settings. These instruments support a wide range of lab applications, including chemical analysis, microbiology, and general research procedures.
Hotplates provide a flat, heated surface ideal for warming liquids or maintaining consistent temperatures during experiments.
Magnetic stirrers use a magnetic field to spin a stir bar within a container, creating a vortex that mixes the solution thoroughly.
Hotplate stirrers combine both functions, allowing you to heat and stir at the same time, improving workflow efficiency and consistency.
These tools are commonly used in:
Chemistry labs for heating and mixing chemical solutions
Microbiology labs for stirring cultures and reagents
Research and academic labs that require precision heating and agitation
Hotplates and stirrers come in a wide variety of sizes and configurations to meet your specific laboratory needs, including:
Digital hotplates with programmable settings and temperature displays
Analog models with basic, manual controls
Multi-position stirrers for high-throughput environments
Compact units designed for space-saving workstations
Compatible accessories like clamps, support rings, thermometers, and external temperature probes can also be used to enhance performance and safety.
