Glass Stirring Shaft, Ø8 mm, 2-Blade Ø60 mm — Yamato 231385 (for LT400/500)

The Yamato 231385 is a glass stirring shaft with an integral two-blade propeller for the LT400 and LT500 laboratory stirrers. The shaft is Ø8 × 500 mm long with a two-blade glass propeller of Ø60 mm — the glass construction suits stirring where a metal shaft and blade would react with or contaminate the sample.

Key Specifications

Application Profile

The LT400/LT500 overhead stirrers grip a Ø8 mm shaft in their SUS drill chuck and drive it with a feedback-controlled brushless motor. Part 231385 supplies that shaft in glass rather than stainless — a two-blade Ø60 mm propeller on a Ø8 × 500 mm glass shaft — for chemistries where sample purity or corrosion rules out a metal blade. The Ø8 mm diameter matches the LT-series chuck directly. Order it when the process demands an inert wetted part; for higher-viscosity work, use Yamato's metal shafts and stainless blades instead.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the dimensions of 231385? A Ø8 mm shaft, 500 mm long, with a two-blade glass propeller of Ø60 mm diameter.

Which stirrers does it fit? The Yamato LT400 and LT500 series stirrers, whose SUS drill chuck is sized for Ø8 mm shafts.

Why choose a glass shaft over a metal one? Glass is chemically inert — use 231385 when a stainless shaft or blade could react with, corrode in, or contaminate the sample.

Is it suited to high-viscosity stirring? It targets low-to-moderate viscosity. For high-torque duty, use Yamato's metal shaft and larger stainless blade options.

Ordering & Configuration

Confirm at quote that your stirrer is an LT400/500 with the Ø8 mm chuck. Add to a quote with the stirrer or on its own.

Guarantee: Small accessory — covered by Yamato's standard parts guarantee; confirm at order.

Order 231385 for inert, glass-wetted stirring on an LT400/500. For rugged or high-viscosity mixing, choose a metal shaft and stainless blade.
