Policemen Stirring Rods, PP

GISCOM Policemen Stirring Rods are multipurpose laboratory tools designed for both stirring and spatula-style handling of powders, crystals, and sedimented samples. Each rod features flattened ends, effectively functioning as two mini spatulas for convenient scraping and sample transfer. Their robust polypropylene construction ensures excellent chemical resistance, making them indispensable for routine laboratory operations across scientific and industrial environments.

Key Features

• 2-in-1 design: functions as both a stirrer and a spatula
• Flattened, rounded ends are ideal for scraping, mixing, and transferring materials
• Durable polypropylene body, lightweight, shatterproof, and long-lasting
• Smooth, non-reactive surface ensures contamination-free handling
• Chemical- and corrosion-resistant, suitable for most laboratory reagents
• Ergonomic and easy to handle, even during extended use
• Reusable and cost-effective compared to fragile glass alternatives
