Borosilicate Glass 250ml Graduated Cylinder Measuring Cylinder

I bought this for the occasional ABV check for distillation and found this to be very high quality. I was surprised to see that it came with a bristle brush for cleaning and both do the job well.

excellent product

Works great

This is a high quality cylinder, but the shipping material was completely inadequate for a glass object, and it was broken into multiple pieces when it arrived. I had to drop the broken bits off at a shipping center, at no cost.A second shipment at no cost arrived intact - same packing, just luck it was not broken. The problem is not with the supplier, but with Amazon's packing, which needs improvement for glass and other fragile objects. In the end you and I are paying the $ cost of shipping replacements for damaged goods, so not a good business model for Amazon.

Too big for most projects.

This graduated cylinder feels very sturdy. The diameter is larger than I anticipated, which was a nice surprise (because I did not read the dimensions). The entire thing is glass and the base feels like it is going to last. I’m using it to measure my isopropyl alcohol and distilled water mixture’s alcohol content using a hydrometer and I needed something tall enough in which the hydrometer could float. This worked nicely.

Not accurate. See images. And it's not as pictured. You can see in the pictures what I received is on the left with the brush in it and I already had one that was on the right. The original one that I had, I had tested and it's very accurate. It needed to be because I was using it for chemicals at work at the time. The pictures show the milliliters just like the one I already had that started with 20 and went up to 240 ml and then 250 ml. The one I received instead of having the measurements like what you see in the pictures, it starts off at 20 ml and then is marked 30 ml and then goes 20 ml up from there so the 100 ml is not marked but with just a line. As you can see in the pictures I went ahead and filled my original to 110 ml and then poured it into the new one and it was already at least 2 ml off. And so I filled it up to 250 ml on my original and then poured that into the new one and you can see from the picture it's over 250 ml. In one picture that still has the brush in it, the glass is scratched and you can feel it on the inside. The base also has a chip out of it. One thing to note is it says that the base is 3 inches and it's actually 3 and 1/2 in. Now I'm wondering if it actually is Borosilicate Glass. The glass is much thicker on the new one and my original weighs 164 g and the new one weighs 279 g. You will have to decide for yourself if accuracy matters, not being as pictured matters, and if chips and scratches matter or not. I hope this review was helpful.

I will be using it for testing specific gravity of racing fuel. Very nice replacement compared to my little one on the right.👍🦅🇺🇸🐾
