Plastic graduated cylinders are a safer alternative to glass. They won’t break, chip or shatter amid the bustle and bumps of everyday lab work. Enjoy their light weight and ease of handling. Simplify volume readings: liquid in plastic cylinders doesn’t form a meniscus, and level liquid avoids confusion and errors. Trust Thermo Scientific Nalgene graduated cylinders to be made from the highest quality laboratory-grade plastic materials for dependably low extractables and excellent chemical compatibility with a wide variety of laboratory solutions.
Looking for ways to make your lab more sustainable? Nalgene polypropylene copolymer graduated cylinders are reusable, durable and recyclable at end-of-life in many communities; discover more about the sustainability of using reusable plastic labware and Thermo Fisher Scientific's green manufacturing practices through our participation in My Green Lab's ACT Label program.
A. Glass cylinder B. Plastic cylinder
Nalgene plastic cylinders don't form a meniscus like glass cylinders do. You can read the liquid level straight across the graduation line. Avoid confusion and errors by using plastic instead of glass.
