Chemical Jars By Peak Horology

Chemical Jars By Peak Horology

These are small glass jars for the solvents a watchmaker keeps within reach. Each jar has an aluminum screw lid with a PTFE (Teflon) gasket, which seals in the solvents watchmakers use every day and resists/seals them better than rubber or plastic liners do.

Every lid is laser-engraved with our sunburst-and-tile design. The chemical’s name is on the lid, along with its key reference details and GHS hazard symbols, so you can tell what’s in each jar at a glance.

Available lids

• IPA: Isopropyl Alcohol
• L&R #3: Watch Rinsing Solution
• Epilame: Fixodrop ES/BS-10
• Hexane: n-Hexane
• Film V: Prisco Film Cleaner V (heptane)

Important safety information: please read before use

These jars are sold as empty storage containers for experienced users. Jars are not sold with any chemical in them.

• You are responsible for your own use. It’s up to you to decide whether a jar suits the chemical you put in it. Use it only in line with that chemical’s Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and the laws where you work.
• Lid markings are for identification only. The engraving reflects publicly available SDS information at the time of design. Formulations and classifications can change, and the lid is not a complete hazard label. Always read the current SDS from your supplier. Keep the supplier’s original container and label, and follow any labelling rules that apply in your workplace.
• Store safely. Many bench solvents are highly flammable. Keep jars tightly closed and upright, away from heat, sparks, open flames and direct sunlight. Use them only in a well-ventilated area.
• Keep away from children and pets. Never put chemicals in jars that could be mistaken for food or drink.
• Inspect before each use. Check the glass for chips or cracks, and make sure the gasket is seated and in good condition. Stop using any jar that is damaged or doesn’t seal properly.
• Wear appropriate protection when handling chemicals, as recommended on the SDS.
• No compatibility guarantee. PTFE and glass resist a wide range of solvents, but we do not guarantee compatibility with any particular chemical, concentration or temperature.

Limitation of liability. Peak Horology LLC is not responsible for any injury, illness, damage, fire, loss or other harm that comes from how these jars are used, misused, filled, stored or handled, or from the chemicals stored in them. By buying and using these jars, you accept full responsibility for their safe use. This applies to the fullest extent permitted by law.
