FAQs
What are these rods used for?
They are the rods, or pegs, of a laboratory draining rack, which holds washed glassware and labware upside down so it can drain and dry. Rods of different sizes let the rack support a range of vessels, holding each piece securely while air circulates and water runs off.
What sizes are available?
The group offers two rod sizes: 100 mm long by 10 mm in diameter, and 60 mm long by 6 mm in diameter. The larger rod suits taller or wider-mouth vessels, while the shorter, thinner rod suits smaller items, so you can match the rod to what you are drying.
Are these replacement parts?
These are rods for a Burkle draining rack and can serve as replacements or as additions to expand a rack's capacity. If a rod is lost or damaged, or you need to support additional vessels, ordering the matching rod size restores or extends the rack's function.
Will these fit my rack?
They are designed as Burkle draining-rack components, so they are intended for compatible Burkle racks. Because configurations vary, confirm that the rod size and fitment match your specific rack before ordering, and contact the supplier if you are unsure which rods your rack uses.
What material are the rods?
The listing provides the rod dimensions but does not state the material, which is set by the manufacturer. If the material matters for your application, for example for chemical compatibility, contact LabPro so they can confirm the specification from Burkle before you order the rods.
