Description
The Kimble-Chase 60700-5 Clear Glass Vial is a specialized high-recovery container, commonly referred to as a “V-Vial” or reaction vial, designed for micro-scale chemical applications. This vial has a capacity of 5 ml and is constructed from Type I borosilicate glass, which offers robust chemical resistance and thermal stability, making it suitable for heating reactions or long-term storage of aggressive solvents.
A defining feature of this vial is its tapered base (conical interior). Unlike standard flat-bottom vials, the interior walls of this vial slope downward to form a “V” shape at the bottom. This design is critical for maximum sample recovery, as it concentrates the liquid in a small area, allowing a syringe needle or micropipette to retrieve nearly every drop of valuable or limited samples. The vial typically features a heavy-wall construction for added durability and a standard screw thread finish (20-400) designed to accept open-top caps with septa for closed-system reactions or sampling.
