Product Description
A reliable vacuum adapter is the link that keeps a distillation receiver sealed and under control. This adapter connects your condenser to the receiving flask or rotating receiver while providing a port for drawing vacuum, helping you run reduced-pressure distillations cleanly.
This listing is for Kimble catalog number 544001-2440: KONTES Vacuum Adapter. Made of laboratory glass, the adapter uses Standard Taper 24/40 joints for a secure fit with standard condensers and flasks. It is used as part of a receiver assembly, where it carries distillate to the collection vessel and connects to the vacuum line. Grease or sleeves can be used on the joints as your procedure requires. Order it from LIGHT LABS and keep your lab stocked with genuine DWK Life Sciences products.
