Description
Corning Pyrex 2962-1L Glass Hydrometer Cylinder Hex Base 1000ml Lab Jar
The Corning Pyrex 2962-1L is a 1000 ml (1 L) glass hydrometer cylinder, also called a hydrometer jar, designed to hold a hydrometer upright in liquid during specific gravity or density measurements. It is made from Pyrex 7740 borosilicate glass and features a thick, flat hexagonal base that keeps it stable on a lab bench without a stand. The cylinder is manufactured by Corning Incorporated and is intended for laboratory use only.

Applications
Hydrometer cylinders are standard labware used to float a hydrometer in a liquid sample so the specific gravity or density can be read off the hydrometer scale without the instrument touching the container walls. They are used across a wide range of laboratory, brewing, winemaking, battery testing, and industrial quality-control applications where liquid density needs to be measured. The hexagonal base design is common in lab settings because it prevents rolling on the bench and provides a stable platform without requiring a separate stand or clamp. Pyrex 7740 borosilicate glass is chemically resistant to most aqueous solutions, acids, and solvents encountered in routine lab work, making it suitable for a broad range of sample types.
This Corning Pyrex 2962-1L glass hydrometer cylinder is new and unused. It comes with its original Corning shipping box, though the box may have been opened previously. The cylinder itself shows no signs of use, wear, or damage — the glass is clean and clear, and the hexagonal base is intact. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
