The IPD9600-50S is the largest stainless steel grinding jar in the Benchmark Industrial IPD9600 BeadBlaster 96 Ball Mill Homogenizer consumable family — sold as set of 2 jars at $3,475. The 50 mL jar is the bulk-volume sample-vessel format in the BeadBlaster 96 ecosystem, supporting workflows where 25 mL jar volume is insufficient for the sample input.

Pick the 50 mL jar when:
- Workflow sample volume is 25-50 mL (exceeds 25 mL jar capacity)
- Bulk-sample homogenization — environmental samples, forensic samples, larger food-testing samples
- Workflow uses larger 25 mm grinding balls (IPD9600-25BS) which fit the 50 mL jar geometry
Application Profile
Bulk-sample bead-mill homogenization — environmental samples (soil, sediment), forensic samples, food samples for QuEChERS prep at the 50 mL volume scale.
Cannabis bulk-sample prep — homogenization of larger cannabis samples for downstream extraction / testing.
Industrial / mechanochemistry workflows — chemical reactions induced by mechanical energy at the 50 mL jar scale.
Method-development workflows — protocol-development workflows where 50 mL jar provides representative sample volume for method validation at bulk scale.
Multi-investigator shared chassis — facilities running mixed jar / plate / tube workflows benefit from the 50 mL jar inventory for bulk operations.
Ordering & Configuration
Pair with grinding ball. 50 mL jar workflow typically uses 1-3 grinding balls per jar at 15–25 mm sizes (IPD9600-15PTFB / -15ZOB / -25BS).
Pair with replacement gaskets. Plan for periodic IPD9600-50G procurement.
Confirm at quote: chassis pairing (IPD9600 in inventory), workflow material requirement, bead inventory matching jar volume, replacement gasket inventory, and lead time.
Warranty: Per Benchmark Industrial standard accessory terms — confirm at quote.
Benchmark Industrial IPD9600 grinding-jar family (see family table above for full material × volume matrix).
Pick the 50 mL stainless steel jar set for bulk-volume bead-mill workflows; sister 25 mL stainless steel for mid-volume; alternative materials (TC / PTFE / ZrO₂) cover specialty workflows.
