High quality glassware is essential to reliable and accurate laboratory results, and requires appropriate reprocessing to ensure continued performance and a long service life. Miele, a global leader in washing equipment, is delighted to partner with DWK Life Sciences by supporting training initiatives in glassware use and becoming its recommended brand for laboratory washer disinfectors.


SCHOTT is the UK representative for DURAN® laboratory glassware on behalf of DWK Life Sciences (formerly DURAN Group). Siobhan Hudson, sales manager of laboratory glassware, explained: "Knowing how to clean and look after glassware is essential for sustainable use, and thorough yet gentle washing is critical to this. Miele has a long-standing relationship with DWK Life Sciences, which is a testament to both companies commitment to developing high quality products for the laboratory. Given our positioning as a premium brand in the market, it only makes sense to recommend Mieles washer disinfectors for reprocessing our DURAN® laboratory glassware, as our customers need reliable and efficient products for day-to-day laboratory use, with quick operating times to ensure fast turnarounds. Mieles ‘Made in Germany quality stands out in the market for washer disinfectors, and we are delighted to support one another by promoting best practice in laboratory glassware."

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs

Our retention knobs are manufactured above international standards or to machine builder specifications. Retention knobs are manufactured utilizing AMS-6274/AISI-8620 alloy steel drawn in the United States. Threads are single-pointed on our lathes while manufacturing all other retention knob features to ensure high concentricity. Our process ensures that our threads are balanced (lead in/lead out at 180 degrees.) Each retention knob is carburized (hardened) to 58-62HRC, and case depth is .020-.030. Core hardness 40HRC. Each retention knob is coated utilizing a hot black oxide coating to military specifications. Our retention knobs are 100% covered in black oxide to prevent rust. All retention knob surfaces (not just mating surfaces) have a precision finish of 32 RMA micro or better: ISO grade 6N. Each retention knob is magnetic particle tested and tested at 2.5 times the pulling force of the drawbar. Certifications are maintained for each step in the manufacturing process for traceability.
