Key Features
- Food-Grade Polypropylene Plastic: Durable, safe, and chemically resistant to most acids, bases, and common solvents — making these cylinders suitable for a wide range of experiments.
- Non-Wetting Interior Surface: Eliminates concave menisci so you can read measurements accurately at a glance — no guesswork, no error.
- Wide Tapered Pour Spout: The wide rim and tapered spout make filling and pouring liquids easy and mess-free.
- Stable Pentagonal Base: The wide, five-sided base keeps each cylinder upright and roll-resistant — a must for busy lab environments.
- Autoclave Compatible: Heavy-duty plastic withstands repeated autoclaving for thorough sterilization and long-term use.
- Shatter-Resistant Alternative to Glass: Switching from glass cylinders dramatically reduces the risk of breakage and potential accidents in the classroom or lab.
- Transparent Design: Crystal-clear plastic provides unobstructed views of liquid levels for fast, accurate measurement reading.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What sizes are included in the plastic graduated measuring cylinder set?
A: The 4-piece set includes one 10ml, one 25ml, one 50ml, and one 100ml graduated cylinder. A 5-piece set option is also available for expanded measuring capacity. Each size is clearly marked with graduated measurement lines for accurate readings.
Q: Are these plastic graduated cylinders safe to use in school laboratories?
A: Yes! These cylinders are made from food-grade polypropylene plastic, which is chemically resistant to most acids, bases, and common solvents. They are also autoclave-compatible for sterilization and are shatter-resistant, making them a much safer alternative to glass cylinders in school or home lab settings.
Q: How does the non-wetting interior surface improve measurement accuracy?
A: Traditional glass cylinders can cause concave menisci (a curved liquid surface) that makes accurate reading difficult. The non-wetting interior surface of these plastic cylinders eliminates this effect, allowing for a flat, easily readable liquid surface and more precise measurements every time.
