Balloons

Balloons are one of the most widely used instruments in laboratories. There are different materials for a wide variety of applications, but glass is still the most widely used.

Glass possesses purity and cleaning properties that other materials do not.

Wide-necked or narrow-necked balloons

The function of flasks is to collect the substances processed in the laboratory and it is important to choose the right neck and attachment to connect them to equipment.

Colaver, in its blowroom, can modify any existing flask to suit the most specific requirements.

Chemical Balloons

Flat-bottomed or round-bottomed balloons

Balloons can have either a flat bottom or a round bottom.

The former ensures greater stability of the object, especially if it is placed on the worktop.

The round bottom is chosen when substances are mixed inside the flask that must not settle in the edges and to promote better mixing.

In this case, a magnetic anchor is placed inside the container to agitate the liquid contained in the flask.

Connections to other equipment

There are applications and equipment that require complex systems to be set up for taking and collecting substances. This is why it is important to have a facility that can customise connections between equipment.

NS standardised conical couplings and ball joints can be welded to the container to create customised products suitable for many applications.

The choice of joints between the different components of a system is determined by the characteristics of the substances being processed.

Gases require sealing joints that do not allow the slightest leakage to pass through.

For liquids, flasks are usually joined to the various equipment cin standardised conical joints.

For the most common sizes, we sell flasks with the standard sizes in order to offer moulded products at low prices.

Balloons can be connected to one or more devices. For this, they can be equipped with several necks to be connected externally.

Additional necks with customised dimensions can be added to the Colaver blowers.
