Round bottom reaction flask used to hold flasks in place. Made from aluminum to prevent interference from magnetic stir bar while allowing for rapid heat transfer. Used in short path distillation or terpene refinement.
Reaction blocks are used to transfer heat from the hotplate stirrer to a round bottom flask. Made of aluminum for rapid heat transfer and does not interfere with the stirring magnetic field. Standardized flask sizes are important to fit the block correctly. Best used for moderate temperature work, but not recommended for high temperature work above around 140°C.
