Abstract: An adjustable dual-purpose laboratory holder apparatus (100) is disclosed for securely and interchangeably accommodating test tubes and round bottom flasks within a unified footprint. The apparatus (100) comprises a rigid main structural frame bilaterally configured with a specialized test tube holding side and a distinct round bottom flask holding side. The test tube side incorporates a linearly displaceable movable internal rod mechanism and an adjustable locking collar to safely secure test tubes of varying outer diameters, typically in an adjustment range from 10 mm to 25 mm. High-temperature resilient silicone grip pads are affixed to all contact surfaces to provide a firm, vibration-resistant grip without point-loading fragile borosilicate glass. The opposite longitudinal side features a circular support ring mechanism possessing an engineered concave cradle profile and an anti-slip lining, which geometrically conforms to spherical flasks ranging from 50 mL to 1000 mL volumetric capacities.
