Alcohol Lamp & Wick
Alcohol Lamp & Wick An alcohol lamp consists of a small glass jar with a wick which goes through the lid of the jar. It can also be used in place of a Bunsen burner for gentle heating of something in a workshop/laboratory. The glass jar is filled with alcohol/methylated sprit which is flammable. A wick dipped in the alcohol draws alcohol up through the lid, where it burns, like a candle. It can be used for heating at low temperatures. Size: 120 x 70mm Weight: 250g
