Cole-Parmer SHM-200-100-115 Stirring/Heating Mantle, 100 mL Capacity; 115 VAC
Manufacturer: Cole-Parmer
Description
Cole-Parmer's SHM-200-100-115 is a stirring and heating mantle with a capacity for round-bottom flasks up to 100 mL. It operates on 115 VAC, aligning with standard laboratory electrical systems in many regions. The unit integrates a heating element shaped to fit a flask, promoting efficient thermal transfer to its contents. Simultaneously, an incorporated magnetic stirrer rotates a stir bar inside the flask to provide consistent agitation. This dual functionality is essential for chemical procedures such as reflux, distillation, and synthesis, where both temperature control and homogeneous mixing are required. The 100 mL capacity makes it suitable for small to medium-scale laboratory work. By combining heating and stirring in one device, it simplifies setup, saves bench space, and offers a controlled environment to improve reaction consistency and reproducibility.
