OHAUS Guardian 5000 Synthesis Kits

The OHAUS Guardian™ 5000 Synthesis Kits are designed for safe, clean heating with standard round-bottom flasks, making it easier for chemists to assemble, replace, and maintain experimental setups. The range includes 3 basic kits, each featuring a Guardian 5000 hotplate stirrer and a base block compatible with 250mL, 500mL, or 1000mL flasks. Additionally, optional insert blocks accommodate smaller flasks down to 25mL (sold separately).

Key Features

  • As a safer alternative to oil bath, the synthesis kits eliminate the risks of oil fires, spills, and toxic fume emissions
  • Base blocks include 2 heat-resistant handles for safe handling when hot
  • Compared to traditional heating mantles, the synthesis kits provide precise, uniform heating
  • Low-well design prevents glassware cracking or jamming and ensures excellent reaction visibility
  • As flask sizes vary, the compact insert blocks help users save costs by avoiding multiple block bases
  • Thanks to high-precision machining, inserting and removing blocks is as easy as building blocks
  • Blocks are durable and easy-to-clean with a chemical and solvent-resistant anodized finish
  • Rod stand, probe & holder, and flask clamps are all included in package for immediate installation
  • Capability to install a second rod and additional clamps for more sophisticated apparatus setup
