Custom glasswork
Precision scientific glass—made to spec
From one-off prototypes to small production runs, Scientificore builds and modifies borosilicate glass components for research, education, and product development.
How custom glasswork works
Share your requirements and we’ll guide the build from concept to shipment—focused on fit, function, and repeatability.
01
1) Share specs
Send a sketch, photo, part number, or dimensions. Tell us what it connects to and the operating conditions (temperature, vacuum, pressure, chemicals).
02
2) Confirm design
We’ll review tolerances, joint types, and materials, then confirm lead time and pricing before work begins.
“The piece arrived well-packed and fit our setup immediately. Great communication throughout the build.”
03
3) Fabricate & verify
Technical glassblowing, annealing, and basic dimensional checks to ensure the piece matches the agreed spec.
04
4) Pack & ship
Careful packaging for fragile glass and tracking provided. We can also coordinate returns/repairs if needed.

Custom glasswork FAQ
Quick answers to common questions about specifications, lead times, and shipping.
What information should I send for a quote?
A sketch or photo, key dimensions, joint types (e.g., ground glass), and what the part connects to. If you have operating conditions (heat, vacuum, chemicals), include those too.
Do you work from broken parts or samples?
Yes—when possible. Send photos first so we can confirm feasibility and recommend the best path (repair vs. remake).
What materials do you use?
Most builds use borosilicate glass. If you need a specific grade or special requirements, note it in your request.
What are typical lead times?
Lead time depends on complexity and current queue. We’ll provide an estimate with your quote and confirm before starting work.
How do you ship fragile glass?
We use protective packing designed for fragile items and provide tracking. If anything arrives damaged, contact us right away so we can help.
Can I order standard lab glassware too?
Yes—browse our catalog and order directly online.
