Product Description
Join a boiling flask to a condenser and monitor vapor temperature with one piece of glass. This connecting adapter holds a thermometer at the top while its angled side joint carries vapor to the condenser, simplifying classic simple and fractional distillation setups.
This listing is for Kimble catalog number 167000-2440: KONTES 75° Connecting Distillation Adapter, With Thermometer Joint, 24/40 mm. An outer standard taper joint at the top accepts a thermometer adapter, and the inner joints sit at a 75 degree angle. The adapter also lengthens the apparatus and can act as an air condenser. It is made from low extractable 33 expansion borosilicate glass and is offered in 14/20, 19/22 and 24/40 sizes with matching thermometer joints. Order it from LIGHT LABS and keep your lab stocked with genuine DWK Life Sciences products.
