The Corning Pyrex 1000-600 600mL borosilicate glass Griffin-style, graduated, low-form beaker with spout has silk-screened markings and is designed for low-volume applications. This beaker is made of clear Code 7740 Type 1 borosilicate glass for durability, chemical- and temperature-resistance, and high mechanical strength under harsh conditions, such as mechanical washing. Borosilicate glass has a low coefficient of thermal expansion and is resistant to thermal stress. The beaker has 50mL double-scale graduation intervals, an extra-large marking area. Double-scale graduations increment volume from the bottom to the top measure contents, and decrement from top to the bottom estimate the volume of liquid poured off. The beaker meets ASTM International E960 standards. Beakers are used for measurement, quality testing, sampling, and research, and in lab applications in chemistry, education, research, and life science applications.

Beakers are containers used by chemists, researchers, and educators to measure, mix, analyze, transport, and heat substances in a variety of laboratory, educational, and life science applications. Beakers are commonly made of glass such as borosilicate, and can also be made of stainless steel, or plastic materials such as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), polypropylene, or polyethylene. Material types are chosen for their chemical, heat, and corrosion resistance, and for their surface finish, clarity, and non-contaminating abilities. Beaker forms commonly include Griffin (low overall height), Berzelius (a high form), or a shallow and wide structure, which is used for liquid crystallization. A beaker's outer diameter (OD) measurement does not include the rim. Beakers can meet ASTM E-960 specifications for classification, design, capacity and dimensions, and markings.

Corning manufactures consumable glass, ceramics, and plastic laboratory tools under the brands Corning, Costar, Cellgro, Pyrex, Axygen, and Gosselin, and Lambda, among others. The company, founded in 1908, is headquartered in New York, NY.
