The Pyrex® Cloud and Pour Point Jar is a specialized borosilicate glass vessel used in petroleum testing laboratories to determine the cloud point and pour point of lubricating oils, diesel fuels, and other petroleum-based products. These tests are essential in assessing a fuel's performance at low temperatures.
Manufactured from high-quality Pyrex® borosilicate glass, the jar offers excellent chemical resistance, thermal durability, and optical clarity for precise temperature measurements. A single etched line positioned 51 mm above the base provides a consistent fill reference point in accordance with ASTM testing standards.
