Microscope consumables designed to keep specimens flat and protected during observation. Daily lab work and teaching benefit from predictable sizing and bulk supply. Are MUHWA Glass Cover Slips the sensible choice for a busy classroom or research bench?
⚡ At a Glance
- • Thickness Consistency: Specified thickness range of 0.13-0.17mm supports uniform handling and predictable fit
- • Best for: Educational labs, routine microscopy and sample preparation using standard microscope slides
- • Not ideal for: Applications needing larger cover slips or specialised coated glass
1000 glass cover slips supplied as 10 boxes of 100, each 18 x 18 mm with 0.13–0.17 mm thickness. Packaged for bulk laboratory or classroom use.
Secure specimen mounting – with standard 18 x 18 mm size
Each cover slip measures 18mm by 18mm, matching common microscope slide areas for reliable placement. The uniform dimensions simplify handling during slide preparation.
Specimens remain centred and flat, speeding up preparation and reducing wasted slides during teaching or routine checks.
Consistent focal behaviour – with 0.13–0.17 mm thickness
A controlled thickness range keeps the glass uniformly thin across the batch and limits variation between slides. Consistency supports repeatable focal adjustments under typical light microscopes.
More predictable focusing saves time at the eyepiece and helps produce clearer observations during repeated sessions.
Ready-for-lab bulk supply – with 10 boxes of 100 per pack
Supplied as 100 pieces per box in ten separate boxes, totalling 1000 cover slips to streamline storage and distribution. Individual boxes reduce the need for immediate repackaging.
Bulk format reduces restocking frequency and suits busy classrooms, teaching labs or high-throughput sample workflows.
✨ The 4 Key Reasons for MUHWA Glass Cover Slips
Keeps specimens flat - Ensures reliable contact for clearer microscopic imaging and consistent results
Protects slides and lenses - Guards specimens from dust and accidental contact during handling
Convenient bulk format - Suits teaching sessions with frequent slide preparations and rapid turnover
Glass composition - Avoids plastic artefacts for typical light microscopy observation
