Potter-Elvehjam Tissue Grinder Replacement Parts

Description

These grinder are precisely constructed with completely interchangeable parts to allow easier cleaning or replacement of damaged mortars. They are designed for use in preparation of tissue homogenates and other similar applications. The Teflon pestle is for soft tissues such as brain or liver. The stainless steel rod is 0.25″ (6.3mm) diameter. The grinding chamber clearance is 0.004″ to 0.006″ (0.1 to 0.15mm). This unit is autoclavable and can be used for power homogenization as with overhead stirrer. However, we strongly recommend the use of safety-coated tissue grinder (64793-series) for added safety. This unit is manufactured from Wheaton 33 low extractable borosilicate glass that conforms to USP Type 1 and ASTM E-438 Type 1, Class A requirements.
