CAT Scientific Overhead Stirrer R 18 – High-Torque Laboratory Overhead Stirrer
CAT Scientific designs the CAT Scientific Overhead Stirrer R 18 as a powerful, high-torque overhead stirrer for demanding laboratory mixing applications. This CAT overhead stirrer delivers strong and stable performance for high-viscosity liquids and larger volumes, making it suitable for advanced chemical, pharmaceutical, and industrial laboratory processes.
Compared to lower-torque models, the R 18 overhead stirrer offers significantly higher torque and a wider speed range, enabling efficient mixing of viscous media that magnetic stirrers cannot handle reliably.
