I don't think I've ever seen this size of lab-grade bottles this inexpensive:

Nice deal! Have you ordered them? If so, do they have a PTFE cap liner?

BobD1001 - 26-5-2017 at 08:24

Just answered my own question. Per the one picture, the box label shows Thermoset F217 & PTFE!

I might order a box or two, if anyone just wants a few. They would cost me about $1 each with shipping, so I could sell them for $1 each plus the total shipping of an order. If anyone wants a dozen or more, it might be cheaper to just buy a whole case, but if you just want a few, then a group buy might work better. Just post if you are interested in a few of these.

If Dr. Bob is ordering MORE glass, you know it has to be a good deal!

I ordered a box already myself, but they haven't arrived yet.

I have several similar bottles that I bought from Dr. Bob. Mine are amber. They are satisfactory for storing small quantities of organic liquids and acids, not to mention elemental bromine.

I ordered a box to check out, if anyone wants just a few, I am happy to sell some for $1 each, you can't even buy the replacement caps for that little.

those plastic caps are extremely durable and reliable, I love em.

It now says local pick up only. The seller won't ship them. Too bad, i was going to order a box.

I received a case today, in fine time: ordered to May 27, received;) May 30 (over a holiday weekend).

I just got mine in the mail. That was fast.

They look like the ones I got from Dr. Bob, but obviously clear instead of amber. The labels are a nice addition, and will make my chemicals look considerably more professional.

Incidentally, I made a fortuitous discovery recently. I'd purchased a dozen 50 mL dropper bottles, but made the mistake of storing most of them (at one time or another) near something that ate through the rubber of the eyedropper caps. So I had a whole bunch of glass bottles without caps. I was occasionally using them as makeshift flasks when I was out of real glassware, until I discovered that yellow HEET bottle caps fit on them perfectly. They're even polyethylene and childproof. Since HEET/methanol is the cheapest pure, anhydrous alcohol I have access to, I go through quite a few of those bottles regularly, and I've nearly replaced all of my missing caps.

I just got a box also, shipped very fast and as listed. Great deal. So if anyone wants a few, let me know. I might even take a few to work for TLC solvent mixes.
