Vitlab Polypropylene Pitcher 5000mL Pack of 6 BrandTech Lab Pitcher

Description

Product Overview

The Vitlab Polypropylene Pitcher is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of modern laboratory environments, delivering a substantial 5000 mL volume capacity while maintaining a lightweight yet durable construction. Crafted from high‑grade polypropylene, the pitcher resists a wide range of chemicals, ensuring that corrosive reagents do not degrade the container over time. Its molded graduations provide clear, precise measurement markings that are permanently etched, eliminating the risk of fading or wear that can compromise accuracy. The design incorporates a wide mouth for easy pouring and cleaning, reducing the likelihood of residue buildup and facilitating rapid turnaround between experiments. Each unit is part of a convenient pack of six, allowing laboratories to standardize their equipment inventory and minimize the need for frequent reordering. The product dimensions of 22.3 x 15.6 x 8.2 inches and a weight of 5.8 pounds per pitcher strike a balance between stability on benchtops and ease of handling by technicians. The model V445941, manufactured by BrandTech, has been a trusted component in scientific workflows since its introduction in 2012, earning a top‑ranked position in the Lab Pitchers category on major e‑commerce platforms. This pitcher’s robust construction, combined with its precise graduations, makes it an ideal choice for tasks ranging from solution preparation to titration and sample transfer.

Usage

Designed for versatility, the Vitlab Polypropylene Pitcher excels in a variety of laboratory settings, including chemistry, biology, environmental testing, and quality‑control labs. Its chemical‑resistant material allows safe handling of acids, bases, solvents, and other aggressive substances without compromising the integrity of the container. The large 5000 mL capacity is perfect for preparing bulk solutions, dilutions, and reagent mixes, while the clear graduations enable technicians to measure volumes with confidence and repeatability. The wide spout facilitates smooth, controlled pouring, reducing splashing and waste during transfers. Because the pitcher is lightweight, it can be easily moved between workstations, making it suitable for both stationary bench work and mobile field applications. The pack of six ensures that laboratories can equip multiple stations simultaneously, supporting high‑throughput workflows and minimizing downtime caused by equipment shortages. Additionally, the pitcher’s ergonomic design reduces strain during repetitive use, contributing to a safer and more comfortable laboratory environment.
