Glass Drop Tube Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-PLE-10427
The glass drop tube is a laboratory glass tube used for guiding capillary tubes, compacting small solid samples and supporting controlled dropping or sample-transfer demonstrations. It is suitable for schools, colleges, chemistry laboratories and general science practical rooms where simple glass-tube handling is required.
Product Description
The Glass Drop Tube from Lab Glassware Manufacturer is intended for basic laboratory procedures where a straight glass tube is required for dropping, guiding or compacting small samples. In chemistry practicals, a drop tube is commonly used to help settle powdered material to the sealed end of a melting-point capillary before heating.
This product can also be used as a general transparent tube for classroom demonstrations when the experiment does not require pressure-rated or heat-rated apparatus. Exact tube length, outer diameter, inner diameter, glass type, wall thickness, end finish and temperature resistance should be confirmed before final catalogue publication or tender submission.
Key Features
- Transparent glass tube for controlled dropping and sample-settling work.
- Useful for compacting melting-point capillary samples in chemistry labs.
- Can support basic demonstrations involving small particles or guided tubes.
- Suitable for school, college and training laboratory use.
- Allows visual observation through the tube during handling or demonstration.
- Simple apparatus with low maintenance when handled correctly.
- Length, diameter, wall thickness and glass type must be confirmed before publication.

How to Use the Glass Drop Tube
- Inspect the glass drop tube for cracks, chips or sharp edges before use.
- Place the tube vertically on a stable bench or suitable support surface.
- For capillary sample packing, fill the capillary with the required small sample amount.
- Drop the capillary carefully through the glass tube so the sample settles at the sealed end.
- Repeat only as required by the laboratory procedure or teacher instruction.
- Remove the capillary and proceed with the melting-point or sample-preparation method.
- Clean the tube if any residue, dust or sample material enters the bore.
- Store the glass drop tube in protective packing after use.
Safety note: Handle the tube as breakable glassware. Do not use chipped glass, do not apply pressure, and dispose of broken glass only in the approved broken-glass container.
Care & Maintenance
- Clean the tube with a suitable glassware brush or rinse method when required.
- Dry completely before storage to prevent residue and water marks.
- Store horizontally in a padded tray or vertically in a secure rack.
- Do not use the tube with heat, vacuum, pressure or chemicals unless the glass grade and rating are confirmed.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a glass drop tube used for?
A glass drop tube is used to guide small tubes or particles and can help compact powdered samples inside melting-point capillary tubes.
Is this suitable for melting-point sample preparation?
Yes, it can be used for melting-point capillary sample packing when the tube length and bore size are suitable for the capillary tubes used.
What glass type is used?
The glass type is not confirmed. Add soda-lime, borosilicate or any other grade only after checking the final product specification.
What is the tube length?
The tube length is not confirmed. Add the final length only after checking the datasheet or supplied sample.
Are the tube ends fire-polished?
End finish is not confirmed. Add fire-polished, cut or open-end details only after verifying the final product.
Can the glass drop tube be heated?
Heating should not be recommended unless the glass grade, wall thickness and thermal rating are confirmed by the manufacturer.
