Perforated baskets made from polyethylene plastic allow rapid filling and draining, and are handy for batch rinsing and transporting labware as well as straining or filtering large particles.

Chemically resistant, they withstand acids and alkalis, and have a service temperature up to 82°C (180oF). Perforations are 2 mm (0.080"), and a strap handle rises 10 cm (4") above the rim.
