Description
BOLA GLS reducers GLS 80 – GL 45 PTFE/PP provide a practical transition from GLS 80 bottle threads to a GL 45 connection in laboratory fluid handling. The blue screw cap is manufactured from PP for GLS 80, while the movable insert carries a GL 45 thread in PTFE. Only PTFE contacts the medium, supporting chemically resistant transfer paths on large laboratory bottles. The freely rotating reducing insert allows the vessel to be changed without prior dismantling of connected equipment, because hoses and cables cannot twist when the bottle is turned. Dimensions cover a GLS 80 thread cap with a GL 45 reducing thread, matching common laboratory bottle and tubing interfaces. Delivered as a single piece with a net weight of 0,183 kg, these reducers from manufacturer Bohlender form part of the BOLA connector programme for glass and plastic laboratory vessels. They are suited to setups that need a stable GLS 80 to GL 45 step-down, free rotation of the insert, and PTFE-only media contact during routine sampling, dosing, or transfer work.
This article is part of Hose connectors, adapters & fittings, in Tubing, hoses & fittings.

Questions about BOLA GLS-Reductions, GLS 80 - GL 45 PTFE/PP
What is this article?
BOLA GLS-Reductions, GLS 80 - GL 45 PTFE/PP is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Bohlender for laboratory use. It sits in Hose connectors, adapters & fittings, inside Tubing, hoses & fittings, in Labware.
A hose connector or adapter joins two lines, or steps one bore down to another. The barb diameter has to match the tube, and the thread has to match the stopcock or the bottle. Most leaks are a mismatch here, not a hole in the tube.
Tubing is how a liquid or a gas moves between two vessels without being poured. Silicone stays flexible and survives repeated autoclaving. PTFE resists almost every solvent and is stiff. PVC is the ordinary flexible line for water and for mild aqueous work. The fitting, not the tube, is what usually leaks: the barb, the thread and the stopcock have to match the tube bore. Glass and plastic apparatus around these lines is indexed under ISO laboratory ware.
