UV protection face shield

polycarbonate

Asynt’s Compact Lab Safety Shields fit neatly around any stirrer hotplate to provide robust, convenient protection from splashes, aerosols and spills. Ideal for use where fume hood space is at a premium, the Safety Shield offers additional protection for chemists from splashes, and also reduces issue with fume hood drafts. Slightly larger than our standard shield, this offers increased protection which is essential in applications such as heated parallel reactions in tubes, especially those operating under pressure. The device also shields reactions from the cooling effect of ventilation. Manufactured in the UK, this Compact Lab Safety Shield fits Asynt, IKA and Heidolph stirrer hotplates. Technical Specifications Manufactured from 5mm polycarbonate, the Safety Shield is resistant to a range of commonly-used laboratory solvents and is temperature-resistant to 170 oC. Designed to maximise fume hood space, the shield maintains access to hotplate controls and gives good all-round visibility of the reaction or process. Fits hotplates up to 16 cm wide.
