Product Description
Distill medium- and high-boiling solvents with less holdup and fewer pieces of glassware. This short path head combines a cold coil, a Liebig-style condenser and Vigreux indentations in one compact unit. It is a compact setup for small-batch purification. It is reusable after cleaning.
