Stir Bars

So I contact a guy on amazon, tell him i need stir bars for a 2000ml flask.
Say t me no problem, i have exactly what you need.
I pay, It arrives. Check this out


But what takes the piss for me…
Wtf am I supposed to do with this?
Did he assume I have a 2000ml test tube???

Yeah, they sell those damn multi packs. Try eBay. You can find sellers with just the specific size you’re looking for. I have a drawer full of those tiny ones if you want more :joy:

I honestly though it was a joke …
They are for test tubes ?
I cant think of any other application.
The question is …
Can you get smaller ones lolololololo

small glassware, small stir bars. perfect for 14/20 glassware.

Don’t worry, you’ll drop the rest down the sink accidently!

Trust me when I say you can get smaller that that. That’s a “big” stir bar compared to some of the ones I have used for small scale reactions.

Bahaha yeah that’s cool for sample vials. I’ve used a smaller one than that to mix disty and pentane in a tiny 1 or 2 mil via for a necklace it made a cute lil cbd ship ina bottle

Would be a neat trick to set two reverse magnets on both sides if the vial to have a continued vortex with the spin bar inside still

Depends on the joint size and shape as to what will fit.

This little fat one is my favorite. However I’m mixing like coconut oil, disty and terps and disty and agave nectar

Indeed. An egg shape will def effect that compared to the pill style with the ridge in the middle

i thought a 2000ml flask is the same shape irrelevant of size of joint.

You’re taking about a 2l round bottom boiling flask right?

No, shape of the stir bar, not the flask.

Stir bars come in cylinder, cylinder with pivot ring, egg, gear, cross, etc
