What is a pipette filler bulb?
A pipette filler bulb is a simple rubber suction device that fits onto the top of a glass pipette, drawing liquid up by squeezing and releasing instead of mouth pipetting. Standard bulbs work with a single squeeze, while three-way safety bulbs use separate valves to draw up, hold, and release liquid with more control.
SmartLabs stocks pipette filler bulbs and pi-pump style fillers for schools, universities, and labs across South Africa. A simple bulb remains one of the most affordable and widely used ways to operate a glass pipette safely.
