A 5-inch (125 mm) square of wire gauze with ceramic center. Using wire gauze with an alcohol burner. Wire gauze or wire mesh is a gauze woven of metal wire, or very fine, gauze-like wire netting. Wire gauze is placed on the support ring that is attached to the retort stand between a burner and glassware, or is placed on a tripod to support ...
Structured packing is formed from corrugated sheets of perforated embossed metal, plastic (including PTFE) or wire gauze. The result is a very open honeycomb structure with inclined flow channels giving a relatively high surface area but with very low resistance to gas flow. The surface enhancements have been chosen to maximize liquid spreading.
An unmounted resistive foil strain gauge. A strain gauge takes advantage of the physical property of electrical conductance and its dependence on the conductor's geometry. . When an electrical conductor is stretched within the limits of its elasticity such that it does not break or permanently deform, it will become narrower and longer, which increases its electrical resistance end-to-
Types of wire gauge. Wire gauges may be broadly divided into two groups, the empirical and the geometric. The first includes all the older gauge measurements, notably the Birmingham gauge (B.W.G. or Stubs) and the Lancashire. The origin of the B.W.G. is obscure. The numbers of wire were in common use earlier than 1735 when the measurements were ...
A test tube holder is used to hold test tubes. [ 1 ] It is used for holding a test tube in place [ 2 ] when the tube is hot or should not be touched. [ 3 ] For example, a test tube holder can be used to hold a test tube while it is being heated. [ 4 ] Moreover, when heating the tube with liquid or solid contained inside, the holder ought to ...
A laboratory tripod is a three-legged platform used to support flasks and beakers. Tripods are usually made of stainless steel or aluminium and made light-weight for efficient portability within the lab. Often a wire gauze is placed on top of the tripod to provide a flat base for glassware. Tripods are generally tall enough for a bunsen burner ...

Iron rings used in a laboratory. An iron ring or ring clamp is an item of laboratory equipment which comprises a conjoined metal ring and radially-extending rod. [1] In some cases, the rod terminates in a screw clamp for attachment to a retort stand or other support; in others, the rod may be attached to a stand by means of a laboratory clamp holder. [2]
