Measuring Cylinders

Premium Measuring Cylinder: Glass and Plastic
Global Laboratory Supplies for the UAE, GCC, Philippines, South Africa and Worldwide
In the world of scientific analysis, precision is not negotiable. At Caresource Global, we provide a comprehensive range of measuring cylinders designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial, educational, and medical laboratories.
From Borosilicate 3.3 glassware to heavy duty plasticware, we ensure your facility has the tools it needs for accurate volumetric measurement across the Middle East (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, and Bahrain), Uzbekistan, Zambia Zimbabwe South Africa, Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Nigeria, Ghana, and Philippines.
Glass Measuring Cylinders: The Gold Standard
For high accuracy applications, Borosilicate 3.3 glass remains the industry benchmark.
• Superior Accuracy: Glass maintains its volume integrity across a wide range of temperature, making it ideal for class A volumetric measurement.
• Chemical Resistance: Highly resistant to most acids, bases, and organics solvents
• Clarity: Offers crystal clear visibility for reading the meniscus with 100% accuracy.
• Heat Resistant: Can be autoclaved and sterilized without the risk of warping
Plastic Measuring Cylinders: Durability Meets Safety
Manufactured from polypropylene (PP) or PMP (Polymethylpentene), these are the go-to for high traffic or high-risk environments.
• Break-Resistant: Virtually unbreakable, reducing the risk of injury and replacement costs in busy environments.
• Lightweight: Easier to handle in large Volumes
• Cost Effective: A budget friendly alternative for educational institutions and routine industrial testing.
• Non-Wetting Surface: Polypropylene cylinders often feature a flat meniscus, making them easier for beginners to read.

Types of Measuring Cylinders Available
Available in Hexagonal and Round base designs, in both glass or plastic:
1. Class A Measuring Glass Cylinder
Engineered for high precision environments, these offers superior stability to prevent tipping. They feature high contrast markings generally printed in blue, brown, white making them incredibly easy to read under lab lighting
2. Class B measuring Glass cylinders
These are the workhorses of lab. Made from durable borosilicate glass, they are designed for general laboratory, educational, or industrial volume measurement where standard accuracy is required.
3. Measuring Glass cylinder with stopper
A versatile tool designed for measuring, mixing, and storing liquids. Available in both borosilicate glass and chemically resistant borosilicate plastic, it features interchangeable stopper that provides an airtight seal, prevent spills, evaporation, or contamination.
4. Class A Measuring Plastic Cylinder
A high accuracy, durable alternative to glass. Crafted from transparent polymers like polymethyl pentene (PMP) or polypropylene (PP), they offer excellent chemical resistance and a non-wetting surface that eliminates meniscus errors. Most models are fully autoclavable.
5. Class B Plastic Measuring cylinder
The ideal choice for general purpose volumetric measurement, typically made from polypropylene (PP) or Polymethylpentene (PMP), these cylinders offer high fracture resistance. They feature stable hexagonal bases, integrated pouring spouts, and highly legible, molded or printed graduation.

Frequent Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the difference between Class A and Class B cylinders?
Class A Cylinder provides the highest level of accuracy for regulated laboratory environments (like Pharmaceuticals). Class B is suitable for general educational and commercial purposes where is slightly wider tolerance is acceptable.
Can I use plastic measuring cylinders for hot liquids?
Polypropylene (PP) is generally safe up to 121 ֯ C (Autoclavable). However, for high temperature chemicals reactions, Borosilicate glass is recommended.
Do you provide calibration certificates?
Yes, we can provide Class A/B glass or plastic cylinders with batch or individual calibration certificates from the manufacturers.
What is the average delivery time within the UAE?
For in-stock items, we typically offer next day or 48 hour delivery within the UAE. Shipping times for the wider GCC (Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain) vary by locations but are handled via express logistics partners.
Can I place bulk orders for educational institutions?
Absolutely. Caresource Global specializes in bulk procurement for schools, universities, and large scale industrial labs.
