Octagonal / Octahedral Stirring Bars (with pivot ring) (various sizes available)

Available in 22 sizes. Octagonal, octahedral shape with pivot ring (stationary). Features higher turbulence at lower speeds (compared to round, cylindrical stirring bars). Ideal for mixing in unique conditions, including where containers have slightly curved or uneven bases. Ring minimizes contact area and aids in reducing friction and lessening marring (of plastic containers). PTFE stirring bars offer ultimate performance, long working life, and extreme versatility. PTFE coating features chemical resistance, thermal stability, low friction (with little or no adhesion), and insolubility (with high purity). Inert and leak-free. Isostatic encapsulation to eliminate cracks and porosity. Polished finish to reduce pickup and cross contamination. Can be sterlized via all typical chemical or thermal (i.e., autoclave, etc.) means (except gamma radiation). FDA and USP Class VI approved PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene). Pure PTFE coating. AlNiCo V magnet core. Various dimensions and weights. See dropdown options to select size. Typically in stock and ready to ship. See Specifications for additional information.
