Filling Funnels
Funnels have a conical shape and short, wide stems for filling bottles or transferring powders. Filling funnels typically have a 60-degree angle that permits accurate fitting of filter paper, as well as vents or flutes to reduce vacuum formation and decrease filtering time.
Filling Funnel Materials
Glass
Borosilicate glass filling funnels include a strong beaded edge that resists chipping. Their resistant structure allows for the use of various reagents and chemicals. They also have a high resistance to thermal and mechanical shock and chemical attack. Funnels made from flint glass and soda-lime glass are also available.
Plastic
Plastic filling funnels may be disposable or reusable and are made from polystyrene, polypropylene, polyethylene (LDPE or HDPE), or other resins.
Metal
Metal funnels are durable and reusable and may be constructed from a variety of metals. Each has characteristics that facilitate a particular use and purpose.
Filling funnels are available in a range of sizes and dimensions. They are typically sized based on capacity — the volume they can contain. Dimensionally, they may vary in top diameter, stem length, stem diameter, bowl angle, bowl capacity, and overall length. Filling funnels may be classified as Class A or Class B based on tolerances specified by ASTM and other standards.
What Different Types of Glass Funnels Are Available?
• General-purpose glass filling funnels for channeling, filling, and decanting liquids
• Short-stem or powder funnels to prevent the stem from clogging during the handling of fine powders
• Long-stem analytical funnels, often used with filter papers
• Fluted funnels to help reduce vacuums and facilitate more rapid filtration
• Büchner, glass-filtering, or vacuum filtration funnels made with an integral sintered glass disc for filtering precipitates or particulates without the need for filter papers. The sintered discs come in a range of pore sizes, typically from 10 to 40 μm
• Pear-shaped separatory funnels (separating or separation funnels) fitted with a stopper and a PTFE or glass stopcock for separating layered immiscible liquids in chemistry applications
• Weighing funnels to function as weighing dishes and to transfer weighed solids to other vessels

Chemglass Life Sciences Filling Bell, Aseptic, 104mm ID, 130mm OAH
Filling Bell, Aseptic, 104mm ID, 130mm OAH. For aseptic filling of vessels. Tubing is attached to the serrated hose connection while the receiving vessel is placed inside the bell. Made from Type 1 Class A borosilicate glass.
Hach Company Funnel, Analytical, 114 mL Approximate Volume
Standard long stem funnel meets the needs of a wide variety of applications. Mounded ribbing prevents "air lock" commonly occurring during funneling and filtrations. A steep, 58-degree cone slope makes for fast and easy flow of either liquids or small solids. Polypropylene construction is resistant to chemicals and makes this funnel fully autoclavable for sterilization.

Mitegen Self-Venting Funnel with Insulated Handle, For Safely Filling 5L & 10L LN2 Dewars & Dry Shippers
This Self-Venting Funnel with Insulated Handle is an essential tool designed for the safe and efficient transfer of liquid nitrogen (LN2) into dewars and dry shippers. Its unique self-venting feature allows cryogenic gas to escape rapidly during filling, preventing splash-back and ensuring a smooth, controlled flow of LN2. The ergonomically designed insulated handle provides a secure and comfortable grip, effectively protecting users from cold burns and enhancing safety during prolonged filling procedures. This funnel is particularly useful for safely transferring liquid nitrogen into 5-liter and 10-liter dry shippers and various dewars. With approximate dimensions of an 8-3/8 inch top diameter, 8-3/4 inches in height, and a 1-inch vent diameter, it offers precise fit and optimal performance. This funnel is an indispensable accessory for any laboratory requiring reliable and safe management of cryogenic liquids.
