Description
BOLA replacement inner parts for GL 18 fittings are precision laboratory components sized for hose outer diameter 1,6 mm (1/16"). The set comprises a clamping ring in ETFE together with a sealing wedge and sealing plate in PTFE, plus an additional FKM O-ring intended for screw connections where the hose outer diameter is smaller than 3 mm; the O-ring remains out of contact with the flow medium. Only PTFE touches the medium, supporting very good chemical resistance in demanding laboratory fluid handling. These spare inner parts restore reliable sealing performance on compatible BOLA GL 18 assemblies used with narrow tubing. Supplied as a single piece from manufacturer Bohlender, they suit routine maintenance of chemically resistant tubing connections in analytical and preparative setups. Net weight is 0,007 kg. The PTFE/ETFE construction focuses contact surfaces on fluoropolymers while the FKM O-ring completes the mechanical seal package for small-diameter hoses without compromising medium purity.

Questions about BOLA Replacement Inner Parts, GL 18 Ø 1,6 mm PTFE/PVDF, with O-ring
What is this article?
BOLA Replacement Inner Parts, GL 18 Ø 1,6 mm PTFE/PVDF, with O-ring 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.
