Description
Bottle thread adapter GL45 to GL40 provides a precise polymer fitting for converting GL 45 bottle threads to S 40 / GL 40 interfaces in laboratory glassware and plastic bottles. Constructed for bottle applications, this adapter enables secure coupling between vessels of differing neck standards commonly encountered in chemical, pharmaceutical and analytical workflows. It supports closed-system liquid transfer, reagent dispensing and sample preparation where thread compatibility is essential. Supplied as 1 pc, the lightweight unit has a net weight of 0,021 kg and gross weight of 0,023 kg together with a packaging volume of 0,001 m³. The adapter originates from Germany and is offered by manufacturer Eppendorf for routine laboratory use. Its compact form factor allows easy integration into existing bottle-based setups without extensive modification. Laboratories handling solvents, buffers or media benefit from the straightforward thread conversion that maintains system integrity during handling. The component is intended for standard scientific applications requiring reliable bottle-to-accessory connections and contributes to efficient fluid management on the bench.
This article is part of Laboratory glass bottles, in Bottles & containers.

Questions about Bottle thread adapter GL45 to GL40ETFE
What is this article?
Bottle thread adapter GL45 to GL40ETFE is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Eppendorf for laboratory use. It sits in Rotor adapters & accessories, inside Centrifuges, in Lab instruments.
An adapter lets a rotor spun for large tubes accept smaller ones. The adapter has to be the one for that rotor, and the tubes have to be supported at the shoulder the adapter was designed for. A stack of the wrong inserts is an unbalanced load.
A centrifuge separates by density. The rotor spins the sample and the force is reported as a multiple of gravity, not as a raw speed, because the same revolutions per minute are a different force at a different radius. A microcentrifuge takes small tubes. A benchtop or floor model takes larger rotors. The tube, the adapter and the rotor have to be the combination the manufacturer rated. An unbalanced load is how centrifuges fail. Measurement of the related quantities sits with the BIPM.
