Labmate Heating Mantle are designed to heat container of liquid or other substances using electricity. They utilize coiled heating element surrounded by protective fabric sleeve for insulation. Their sleeve shields the heating element from the heated substance and promotes even heat distribution. They have temperature control systems and alarms to prevent overheating for safety. Our Heating Mantle are available in range of 2-Posistion Heating Mantle, 4-Posistion Heating Mantle, controlled Heating Mantle.
Frequently Asked Questions
1 What is a Heating Mantle?
A Heating Mantle is an apparatus designed to uniformly heat containers such as flasks, beakers and other glasswares.
2 What is Heating Mantle used for?
It is used for refluxing, distillation, evaporation and synthesis reactions.
3 What is the difference between a Heating Mantle and a Hot Plate?
Heating mantle heats uniformly around the sides of the container whereas a Hot Plate heats from the bottom via a direct heating surface.

It can be used in an inert atmosphere such as a nitrogen atmosphere thereby favoring sensitive reactions.
6 Can Heating Mantle be used in a fume hood?
It can be used in fume hood.
Understanding Heating Mantle: Purpose, Process, and Benefits
Heating Mantle is an electrically powered laboratory device designed to heat glass containers such as round-bottom flasks. It use woven fiberglass insulation and resistive heating elements that wrap around the vessel. This allows for uniform, indirect heating without the risk of shattering the glass due to localized hot spots.
Our Heating Mantle offer precise temperature control, often with built-in thermostats or digital displays, allowing researchers and lab technicians to conduct experiments with accuracy and repeatability. It typically includes;
Uniform Heat Distribution
Built-in Temperature Control
Chemical-Resistant Exterior
Variety of Sizes and Capacities
Heating Mantle is extensively used across academic, industrial, and research settings due to their ability to provide safe and consistent heating for a wide range of laboratory processes. In chemical synthesis, they are ideal for tasks such as refluxing, distillation, or boiling of chemical compounds, ensuring controlled and uniform heating. In pharmaceutical development, they are employed for the preparation and heating of active ingredients and formulations, where temperature precision is crucial. The biotechnology and life sciences sectors utilize Heating Mantle for processes involving temperature-sensitive reagents and biological samples. In the field of environmental testing, this device plays a key role in sample preparation and solvent extraction procedures. They are also commonly found in educational laboratories, where students use them in university and college experiments to learn essential laboratory techniques. Additionally, in petrochemical and oil testing, Heating Mantle is used to heat crude oil samples and various solvents under controlled conditions, making them indispensable in quality control and research applications.
