Asynt's new PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) components include lids, stirrers, stirrer guides, temperature probe holders and clamps for the firm's own and other brands of controlled lab reactors.
The Isleham, Cambridgeshire, UK-based firm says PTFE offers many unique properties that make it the ultimate high performance material for the construction of laboratory apparatus and equipment.
Asynt PTFE reactor components are robust – reducing the risk of accidental damage from dropping or impacts compared with standard glass components.
In fumehood applications where vertical headspace may be limited Asynt PFTE reactor lids have a low profile, which can be beneficial.
Combining chemical inertness and non-scratch surfaces, Asynt PTFE chemical components are designed also to reduce contamination and simplify cleaning.
