Glass Fiber Pad Ohaus 80850087 Toploading Balance Supply Pack of 200

Description

Product Overview

The Ohaus 80850087 Glass Fiber Pad is a premium laboratory accessory engineered to meet the rigorous demands of modern scientific environments. Constructed from high‑quality glass fiber material, each pad delivers a smooth, non‑slip surface that safeguards both the balance platform and the samples placed upon it. Measuring approximately 4 x 4 x 4 inches and weighing just 2.47 ounces, the pads are compact yet robust, offering excellent durability without adding unnecessary bulk. Packaged in a convenient set of 200 units, this product ensures that laboratories, quality‑control facilities, and teaching labs have a ready supply of pads for continuous operation, routine cleaning, and high‑throughput workflows. The pads are fully compatible with Ohaus top‑loading balances and other similar laboratory balances, making them a versatile addition to any analytical setup.

Usage

These glass fiber pads excel in a variety of laboratory settings. In research laboratories, they provide a stable platform for precise weighing of chemicals, reagents, and samples, reducing the risk of slippage that could compromise data integrity. Quality‑control labs benefit from the pads’ ability to maintain consistent weighing performance across multiple instruments, ensuring repeatable results in product testing and compliance verification. Educational institutions use the pads during teaching labs to demonstrate proper weighing techniques while protecting expensive equipment from accidental damage. The pads are also suitable for field‑based analytical work where portability and ease of cleaning are essential. Their non‑slip surface allows users to handle delicate or reactive substances with confidence, while the glass fiber composition resists absorption of liquids, making cleanup quick and straightforward.

FAQ

What types of balances are compatible with this glass fiber pad?

The pad is designed for Ohaus top‑loading balances but works equally well with any laboratory balance that requires a flat, stable surface for weighing. It fits standard platform dimensions and does not interfere with balance calibration.

Can the pads be used with liquids or corrosive chemicals?

Yes. The glass fiber material is chemically resistant and does not absorb liquids, making it safe for use with most non‑aggressive chemicals. For highly corrosive substances, it is recommended to rinse the pad promptly after use.

How often should the pads be replaced?

With normal laboratory use, the pads can last for several years. Replacement is typically needed only when visible wear, tearing, or loss of non‑slip properties occurs, which is uncommon given the robust construction.

Are the pads sterile or suitable for microbiological work?

The pads are not supplied sterile. For microbiological applications, users should sterilize the pads according to their laboratory protocols before use.

What is the best method for cleaning the pads?

Simply wipe the pad with a damp cloth or rinse with mild soap and water. Allow it to air dry before the next use. The glass fiber material dries quickly and does not retain residues.
