Find Threaded or Tight-Seal Petri Dishes for Ferro-Fluid

[taylaron]

Hi, I am trying to figure out where I can get a glass or Pyrex petri dish that has a tight seal or has a threaded lid. I'm holding a liquid that i don't want leaking out because it stains everything in its path. ferro-fluid.
I've searched for petri dishes and found plenty, but none with a screw-on lid or a tight seal.


what are these types of dishes called? any suggested sellers?

Thanks a bunch

It looks like this company makes tight-lid petri dishes. Try googling "buy lid petri dish" I found some hits that way.

You could try looking for an 'agar plate' (which is a petri dish with agar in it), since that's the most common use of petri dishes nowadays.
