Arco 5 mL Low‑Form Glass Beaker with Spout. Use the Arco 5 mL low‑form glass beaker with a spout whenever you need precise handling of small volumes in your lab, classroom, or industrial setting. It gives you excellent thermal resistance, clear measurement markings, and a stable shape that resists tipping.
Key Features & Benefits of Arco Glass Beaker 5mL
- It holds 5 mL of liquid—ideal for mixing reagents, doing titrations, or small‑scale experiments.
- It uses 3.3 borosilicate glass, which endures wide temperature variations and chemical exposure without cracking.
- It features a low‑form (Griffin‑style) design, giving it a short, wide shape that keeps it steady during heating or handling.
- It includes a pour spout, so you can pour liquids cleanly and with precision, reducing spills and waste.
- It has clear, easy‑to‑read graduations (scale markings), which let you eyeball volumes without frequent transfer.
- It resists thermal shock and chemical attack, so you can heat/cool it rapidly and use it with mild acids, bases, and solvents.

Use Cases
- You use it in pharma labs for basic mixing, measuring, or observing reactions.
- Lab technicians use it for small reagent preparation or when accurate small volumes matter.
- You use it in chemistry or biology experiments where precision and clean transfer are necessary.
- It serves well in quality control labs for small sample testing.
Care & Handling Tips
- Always heat slowly; avoid rapid temperature spikes to prevent glass stress.
- Use a stable heat source and support (wire gauze or ceramic tile) when applying heat.
- Clean thoroughly after chemical use to preserve the visibility of graduations and clarity.
- Avoid mechanical shocks (dropping or banging) to prevent cracking.
