Heating Mantle With Stirrer (Rota Mantle)
Product Code : EL-HM-10681
Quick answer: The heating mantle with stirrer, or rota mantle, heats a round bottom flask and stirs its contents at the same time, for reflux, synthesis and dissolving work where the mixture must be kept moving. It has a two-tier build, with the heating element above and the stirring motor below, an energy regulator for heat, and stepless stirring up to 1200 rpm. Lab Exports manufactures it in Delhi for laboratories.

How the rota mantle is used
In an unstirred flask, liquid next to the hot glass gets hotter than liquid in the middle, solids settle, and the contents can bump violently as vapour forms. Stirring while heating evens out the temperature, keeps solids suspended and helps reactions and dissolution go faster. The rota mantle combines both jobs in one unit: the upper tier is a heating mantle controlled by an energy regulator, and the lower tier holds the stirring motor, whose speed is varied smoothly without steps up to 1200 rpm.
It is used for refluxing reaction mixtures in organic synthesis, dissolving solids in hot solvents, preparing media and reagents, and extractions where the sample must stay in contact with the solvent. Sizes from 50 ml to 5000 ml cover micro-scale teaching experiments through to pilot-scale batches.
- Choose the mantle size that matches the flask and stand it on a level bench.
- Charge the flask with the stirrer bar and the contents, and clamp it in the mantle.
- Start the stirrer at low speed and raise it smoothly to the speed needed.
- Set the energy regulator for the heat required and fit the condenser if refluxing.
- After the run, turn off the heat first, let the flask cool while stirring, then stop the stirrer.
