Duran Group Presents a New "Super Duty" Range of Products: Beakers and Erlenmeyer Flasks with Increased Mechanical Sturdiness

The Duran Group launched a completely new range of products under the name "Super Duty": Duran beakers

and Erlenmeyer flasks for mechanically demanding tasks. The new super duty products have two major advantages over conventional Duran vessels:

• The mechanical sturdiness has been significantly

improved due to the increased glass thickness.

• The reinforced rim which not only increases the

shock resistance, but considerably reduces the

risk of breakage.

This extension of the previous Duran product portfolio thereby provides the highest level of safety possible for users confronted with tasks with a high level of mechanical stress such as frequent cleaning or general handling in the laboratory.

More product advantages of the Super Duty glassware:

• Increased shock resistance leads to a longer lifespan

• Established DURAN properties such as

• Very high chemical resistance

• Nearly inert behavior

• A high usage temperature

• Autoclavability.

The following manufacturer specifications apply to use: In order to avoid thermal stressing of the glass, uniform and slow heating is recommended. When working at very high temperatures or if rapid temperature changes are expected, the Duran Group recommends using standard vessels as those are characterised by excellent thermal shock resistance. The mechanical sturdiness of those products is limited compared with the super duty products.

All Super Duty products have a Retrace Code. If you enter that code along with the corresponding article number at www.duran-group.com, you will be able to easily download a batch and quality certificate.
