<p class="MsoNormal">We get these borosilicate glass “shell vials” from Fisher Scientific, though they’re made by Kimble. I’d also recommend looking at Acme Vial in California. Standard sizes in our collection are 1, 2, 4 and 7 dram. We only use them for dry
storage.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Does anyone have a good source for glass vials with PE stoppers, like the ones pictured below? They measure 2, 1.6, and 1.2 cm across, and they have non-tapered openings.
I’ve finally come to the end of the supply that was purchased long before I began working here 24 years ago, and I’m having a tough time finding anything similar.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
