What Is a Clay Triangle Used For?
When a solid has to be heated strongly in a crucible — to drive off water of crystallisation, burn off organic matter or heat a residue to constant mass — the crucible is stood in a clay triangle resting on a tripod or a retort-stand ring, so that its base sits directly in the hottest part of the Bunsen flame. Pipe clay is fired clay: it withstands burner temperatures and conducts heat away less than bare metal would, so the crucible heats evenly while the wire frame stays out of contact with it. The triangle is standard in school chemistry practicals involving crucibles and in college analytical labs.
Check that the crucible sits securely on all three tubes before heating. After use, the triangle and crucible stay hot for some minutes, so lift the crucible with crucible tongs and leave the triangle to cool on the tripod. Replace a triangle whose clay tubes are cracked or loose.
What to Specify When Ordering
- Size — this listing is 150 mm; confirm with JLab how the size is measured if it must match particular tripods or crucibles.
- Quantity — the minimum order is 10 units; schools usually plan one per burner position.
- Crucibles and tongs — add crucibles, crucible tongs and tripods to the same enquiry.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the clay triangle made of?
An iron wire frame with pipe clay tubes on its three sides. The crucible rests on the clay tubes rather than on bare metal.
What size is it?
The listing gives 150 mm. It does not say whether this is the side length or the overall size, so ask JLab to confirm if the fit matters.
Why are the tubes made of pipe clay?
Fired clay withstands the heat of a Bunsen flame without burning, melting or reacting with the crucible, and it conducts heat away more slowly than metal, so the crucible heats evenly.
Are a crucible or tripod included?
No. The listing covers the clay triangle only; crucibles, crucible tongs and tripod stands are separate items, linked below.
Who manufactures this clay triangle?
Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, trading as JLab, makes it at its works in Ambala, Haryana, India, and quotes for it directly as the manufacturer.
OEM Manufacturer
JLab is the trading name of Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, a chemistry lab equipment manufacturer in India, incorporated in 2017 and based on Hargolal Road, Ambala, Haryana. The clay triangle is made in JLab’s own works rather than bought from a trader, so schools, colleges, dealers and importers buy direct from the maker, each triangle is checked visually before dispatch, and replacements come from the same works. JLab exports worldwide and ships to buyers in every region — Slovakia in Eastern Europe, Brunei in Southeast Asia, Costa Rica in Central America and the Caribbean, the Netherlands in Western Europe and Uruguay in South America, for instance. Tender buyers will find details on the JLab lab tenders page.
Crucible Heating Items
- Crucibles — squat form porcelain crucibles with cover.
- Crucible (Squat Form) — a porcelain crucible with lid, glazed inside.
- Tongs for Crucibles — crucible tongs that keep hands away from the hot surface.
- Tripod Stand — a three-legged stand to carry the triangle over the burner.
- Clay Triangle — a smaller clay triangle with 50 mm sides.
