Description
BOLA T-olives Ø 9 mm PTFE are T-shaped tubing connectors moulded entirely from polytetrafluoroethylene for laboratory fluid lines. Each fitting carries three olives sized for elastic hoses such as Viton®, Tygon® or silicone, allowing a clean branch or junction without metallic wetted parts. Because the process medium contacts only PTFE, the connector offers universal chemical resistance across typical laboratory reagents and solvents. Key dimensions are an overall length of 25,5 mm, a through-bore of 5 mm and an olive outer diameter of 9,0 mm, giving a compact geometry suited to crowded apparatus. The single-piece unit has a net weight of 0,008 kg and is supplied ready for immediate installation in analytical, preparative or general laboratory plumbing. Manufactured by Bohlender, these BOLA fittings support reliable hose connections wherever inertness, cleanability and chemical compatibility are required. The all-PTFE construction keeps surfaces free from leachable metals and simplifies integration into existing flexible tubing networks.

Questions about BOLA Tubing Connectors T, Ø 9 mm PTFE
What is this article?
BOLA Tubing Connectors T, Ø 9 mm PTFE 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.
