Cork Borer Set of 9 Brass

For Corks or Other Soft Materials

A cork borer, often used in a chemistry laboratory, is a metal tool for cutting a hole in a cork to insert glass tubing.^  Cork borers usually come in a set of nested sizes along with a solid pin for pushing the removed cork (or rubber) out of the borer.  The individual borer is a hollow tube, tapered at the edge, generally with some kind of handle at the other end.  Cork borers are also used to take samples for experiments when a constant diameter is required, e.g.  When testing the water potential of a potato, a cork borer is used to maintain a constant surface area.
