Retort stands are a staple piece of equipment in laboratories of all types, from school science rooms through to research, pathology and industrial labs. They are designed to provide stable vertical support for clamps, rings and other attachments used to hold glassware, burettes, condensers and instruments securely in place. Whether you’re carrying out titrations, heating experiments or general setup work, a well-built retort stand helps ensure accuracy, safety and consistency during experiments.

Selecting the right retort stand comes down to how it will be used. Base size and weight are critical factors, particularly when supporting larger pieces of glassware or working with heated setups. A heavier base provides greater stability, while rod height determines how much vertical adjustment is available for different experiments. Materials also matter; most laboratory retort stands are manufactured from metal with protective coatings to resist chemicals, moisture and regular cleaning.
Retort stands are often paired with clamps, boss heads and rings, allowing them to be configured for a wide range of applications. They can be purchased as complete kits or assembled from individual components depending on your lab’s requirements. Hurst Scientific offers compatible accessories alongside our retort stands, making it easier to build a setup that works seamlessly with your existing equipment and laboratory workflow.
