Product Information
Full details
The Teqler 1-Litre Stainless Steel Measuring Jug is an essential tool for medical professionals, laboratory technicians, and high-standard kitchen environments that require precise liquid measurement and rigorous hygiene. Its primary benefit is a dual-sided, engraved scale that offers clear readability under various lighting conditions, ensuring accuracy and efficiency. A key caveat for users is that because it is constructed from solid stainless steel, it is opaque, which requires reliance on the internal measurement markings rather than visual liquid levels through the side walls.

FAQs
Is this jug safe for use in an autoclave?
Yes, the stainless steel material is designed to be fully sterilisable and can withstand high-temperature autoclave cycles.
Can I measure hot liquids in this jug?

No, the markings are engraved into the metal, not printed, ensuring they remain visible for the lifetime of the product.
What is the maximum capacity of this jug?
The jug is designed for a maximum capacity of 1 litre.
Is the stainless steel grade suitable for chemical use?
The jug is made from high-quality, corrosion-resistant stainless steel suitable for most standard professional and medical grade chemical applications.
Troubleshooting
Scale is difficult to read due to residue
Soak the jug in warm soapy water to loosen stubborn deposits and use a soft-bristled non-metallic brush to clean inside the engraved markings.
Surface spotting or discoloration
This is often caused by mineral deposits from hard water. Use a white vinegar solution to soak the jug, then rinse thoroughly with distilled water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jug requires no assembly and is ready for use immediately upon unboxing. Because it is stainless steel, it is compatible with standard professional sterilisation equipment, including steam autoclaves. For daily maintenance, it can be hand-washed or placed in a commercial dishwasher. While the material is rust-free, users should avoid using highly abrasive steel wool scrubbers, as these can create microscopic scratches in the surface that may trap residue over time. Instead, use a soft cloth or sponge with a mild detergent to maintain the integrity of the finish.
