About This Item
ASTM E1406 is the ASTM standard most directly associated with laboratory glass filter flasks, providing a technical reference for this specialized glassware. As the Standard Specification for Laboratory Glass Filter Flasks, it helps define the product category in a way that supports consistent selection, procurement, and quality expectations. For laboratories and suppliers, this matters because filter flasks are commonly used in vacuum filtration setups, where dependable form and performance are important.
Purpose of ASTM E1406
The purpose of ASTM E1406 is to establish a clear specification for laboratory glass filter flasks so users can evaluate products against a recognized ASTM standard. By focusing on the flask type itself, the document supports consistency in manufacturing and purchasing decisions for glassware intended for laboratory filtration work. It is generally used as a technical reference when comparing product features, confirming conformance, and aligning expectations between buyers and suppliers.
Common use cases of ASTM E1406
This standard is commonly used when selecting or describing laboratory glass filter flasks for filtration-related tasks. It is relevant in environments where glassware must integrate with vacuum filtration assemblies or similar laboratory workflows. ASTM E1406 may also be consulted by manufacturers, distributors, and quality teams that need a consistent product specification for catalog listings, internal review, or acceptance checks tied to laboratory glassware requirements.
Why ASTM E1406 matters
ASTM E1406 matters because a clear specification helps reduce ambiguity in ordering, inspection, and product comparison. In laboratory settings, that can support better consistency from one supplier to another and help users match the right glass filter flask to their workflow. It also aids quality control and compliance efforts by giving procurement and technical teams a recognized ASTM reference for evaluating laboratory glassware.
