hey friend here is ur answer

wire gauze is usually used to keep glass beakers or flasks from breaking due to heat shock. ... This creates stressthat can eventually cause the glass to break. When a Bunsen burner is used, a piece of wire gauze is often placed between the beaker/flask and a ring that is used to hold the beaker .

Answer:

It is placed under the glass apparatus to spread the temperature evenly and to avoid uneven expansions leading to the breaking of the glass apparatus.
