Frequently asked questions
What is the base made of?+
The manufacturer’s specification list gives heavy-duty cast iron with a blue epoxy powder coat. Note that the same manufacturer’s longer description also refers to the base as “powder coated pressed steel” — the two statements conflict, so if the casting method matters to your application, ask us to confirm before you specify it.
What are the rod specifications?+
35.5 in long, 0.50 in diameter, stainless steel, threaded 10 x 1.5 mm. The stainless steel grade is not published.
Is the rod interchangeable with the other Eisco stand?+
On thread, yes — both the extra-large and the large Eisco kits use a 10 x 1.5 mm metric thread, so rods and bases cross over. Height and rod diameter differ: 39.4 in at 12 mm on the extra-large kit against 35.5 in at 0.50 in here.
What does the base weigh?+
No weight is published for this kit. The extra-large Eisco kit is specified at 4 lb, and the large-base steel lab stand in this catalogue at 6 lb, if base mass is the deciding factor for your setup.
Are clamps included?+
No. The kit is listed as the base and the threaded rod. Boss heads, three-prong clamps and support rings are ordered separately.
