Frequently Asked Questions
Are these aspirating pipettes graduated?
No. They are designed for fluid removal and transfer rather than precise volume measurement, so they ship ungraduated. Choose a serological pipette if you require calibrated graduations.
What lengths are the different volumes?
The 1 mL pipette measures 275 mm, while the 5, 10, 25, and 50 mL versions all measure roughly 342–345 mm, fitting standard aspiration handles and pipette controllers.
Can I use these with organic solvents?
Polystyrene tolerates aqueous buffers and dilute acids or bases well, but it is not recommended for acetonitrile, aromatic, or chlorinated solvents. Limit alcohol exposure to brief contact.
What is the pack size and how is each variant ordered?
Each variant is sold per case of 500. Order by SKU: 1830 (1 mL), 1838 (5 mL), 1842 (10 mL), 1846 (25 mL), or 1850 (50 mL).
