Twelve 100ml borosilicate beakers - $3.63 each
Borosilicate 3.3 glass, low form, spout, printed graduations. Pack of 12 for $43.50.
Borosilicate 3.3 is the grade that matters. It handles heat and thermal shock - which is what a beaker in a school lab actually gets, moving between a bunsen and a bench - and it resists chemical attack. Ordinary soda glass cracks; this does not, not from normal use.
The graduations are printed and permanent. They survive dishwashers and autoclaves, which is where cheaper beakers lose their scale after a term and become unlabelled cups.
Low form with a spout. Low form is the standard classroom shape - stable on a bench, wide enough to stir in, easy to pour from without dribbling down the side.
Twelve is a class set for pair work in a room of 24. Uniform wall thickness is what the supplier credits for the durability, and it is the right thing to care about - most beaker breakages start at a thin spot.
