Product Description
Simplify small-scale distillation with a head and condenser fused into one unit. Fewer joints mean fewer leak points and faster assembly, so students and researchers can spend more time on the separation itself and less time fiddling with clamps and connections.
This listing is for Kimble catalog number 286900-0000: KONTES Distillation Head. The vertical tube has a 14/20 outer joint that converts to a thermometer joint with the 273500 size 21 bushing adapter. Its height is fixed relative to the side arm for use with 25 mm immersion thermometers, and the condenser joint is 14/35. The head measures about 200 mm wide and 120 mm high, made from low extractable 33 expansion borosilicate glass. LIGHT LABS supplies the complete DWK Life Sciences line, including Kimble, Wheaton and DURAN labware.
