Magnetic stirrers and specialized stirring equipment form the backbone of modern laboratory analytics in life science and biopharma applications. These electric stirring devices enable contamination-free mixing of liquids in closed vessels through magnetic force transmission to PTFE-coated stir bars.

The magnetic stirrers operate at speeds from 130 to 1200 rpm and feature automatic start-up for safe acceleration and constant control. The operating principle is based on a rotating magnet beneath the platform surface that drives the magnetic stir bar located in the laboratory container.

Product range includes:
• Laboratory magnetic stirrers with digital display
• Magnetic stir bars made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) in various shapes: conical, triangular, elliptical, stirring cross, standard and color-coded
• Magnetic retrievers made of low density polyethylene (LDPE) for safe removal of stir bars
• Stirring spatulas made of polypropylene (PP) and PTFE
• Stirring rods made of PTFE and rigid PVC (PVC-U)
• Stirring paddles made of PTFE in crescent and banana shapes
• Magnetic rods made of PP and PTFE
• Highly resistant magnetic stir bars made of borosilicate glass
• Specialized micro stir bars for test tubes and centrifuge tubes

The PTFE coating ensures chemical resistance and prevents contamination in critical applications. Various stir bar geometries optimize mixing efficiency depending on vessel shape and viscosity of the media to be mixed.

Magnetic stirrers and other products, such as stirring spatulas, magnetic retrievers and stirring rods, are available directly in the online shop of RCT Reichelt Chemietechnik. The range of RCT Reichelt Chemietechnik offers over 80,000 different products, which are used among others in mechanical engineering, chemical technology, process engineering as well as medical technology.
