Spatulas, spoons, and other measuring tools are very important in Chemistry lab. A discussion on the same will throw good amount of light on the same.


For mixing, scraping, and handling powders, the Lab Spoon & Spatula comes in handy. It can be a one-piece tool for use in the lab or in the field. It is completely made of stainless steel. Each ends have a spatula blade on one end and a tiny spoon on the other, both measuring 2.0x0.3in.


The spatula-spoon can be used for a variety of tasks. On one side, the double-sided multi-purpose spoon is a spoon, and on the other, it's a spatula. This enables the sampling and processing of a wide range of media, including powders, granulates, pastes, and liquids. The spoon side of the spoon-spatula holds 4 ml or 11 ml, depending on the size of the spoon. You can learn more particularly about stainless steel lab spatula from the internet.


Stainless steel measuring spoon in a set of 4, is also available as a measuring aid for fast and easy measuring from 1.25 to 15 ml. The volume is engraved on the handle of each measuring spoon. However, it must be kept in mind that measurement might slightly vary from the manufacturing company. A metal spatula and spoon is also very useful.


Dosing and measuring spoons can be used to precisely measure and dose small amounts of powder, granulates, and liquids. Excess medium is removed from the spoon's upper edge for precise measurement. The handle is etched with the content volume.


The volumetric spoon's flat front edge is great for picking up medium from the bottom of the container or going into the corners, allowing for efficient emptying of little leftover amounts. The volumetric spoon's flat base allows it to be set down without spilling its contents.

The end of the handle has an eyelet that can be used to hang a spoon or to bundle several together.
