Glove Boxes and Glove Box Components


Glove boxes (or gloveboxes) are used in chemistry and materials science to create an isolated environment for the handling of dangerous or atmosphere sensitive samples. Sealed glove box gloves allow you to handle the contents of the main chamber and an antechamber allows you to add or remove items.

Inert atmosphere glove boxes, sometimes referred to as argon or nitrogen glove boxes, purge an inert gas through the chamber to reduce the amount of oxygen and water levels to below a defined level. To ensure that no gasses leak into the system, inert atmosphere glove boxes run at an overpressure. This protects the contents of the glove box from the conditions outside the chamber rather than protecting the user from the materials inside the chamber. Glove boxes like the Ossila Glove Box are a straight-forward and affordable way to create an atmosphere void of H2O and O2

Glove boxes are useful for any application that might be affected by normal atmospheric conditions. They can used for handling, preparing, or storing air and moisture sensitive materials. Common applications include chemical synthesis and thin film device fabrication. Perovskite materials are particularly sensitive to the presence of moisture in the atmosphere.

Glove Box Gloves

Glove Box Gloves

Replacement 32” glove box gloves for the Ossila Glove Box (or any other with a 9” port diameter). Constructed from butyl rubber and suitable for use with a range of chemicals. Glove box gloves are susceptible to damage under normal usage and should be replaced as soon as they develop a hole to maintain the integrity of the internal atmosphere. Sold as a pair.

Price $475.00 ex. VAT
Oxygen Sensor

Oxygen Sensor

Replacement 4-pin oxygen sensor for the Ossila Glove Box. Accurate and easy to fit. Oxygen sensors use a photoluminescent material and therefore need to be replaced every 1-2 years. You may need to replace your oxygen sensor sooner if working with organic solvents (we recommend minimising exposure to the vapours by keeping solution bottles closed) or high temperatures.

Price $225.00 ex. VAT
Glove Box Nitrile O-Rings

Glove Box Nitrile O-Rings

Spare or replacement glove port and antechamber door O-rings for the Ossila Glove Box. Sold in packs of four and two respectively to allow for a full replacement of the relevant O-rings. Prolong the life of your O-rings by checking them regularly and wiping them down to remove any dust and replace when they lose elasticity or crack from repeated usage or age.
