Description
Calcium chloride tubes U-shaped 80 mm are laboratory drying tubes for holding solid desiccants in gas-drying and purification work. The U-form design with a side tube provides a practical geometry for packing calcium chloride while enabling connection into simple apparatus lines. Measuring 80 mm in length and 9 mm in diameter, the compact format suits bench-scale drying trains and temporary gas-handling setups. Each item is supplied as 1 pc with a net weight of 0,016 kg and a gross weight of 0,016 kg. These calcium chloride tubes from manufacturer Witeg support routine moisture-removal tasks in analytical chemistry, preparative support work and general laboratory gas conditioning. The U-shaped profile aids stable placement on the bench and promotes contact between the gas stream and the desiccant bed. With the integrated side tube, the piece fits readily into basic drying arrangements where a short, small-diameter U-tube is required. Laboratories needing a clear 80 mm U-form specification for standard desiccant packing will find this tube a straightforward choice for everyday drying applications.
This article is part of Test tubes, in Tubes & vials.

Questions about Drying tubes, U-shaped, with side conne
What is this article?
Drying tubes, U-shaped, with side conne is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Witeg for laboratory use. It sits in Test tubes, inside Tubes & vials, in Labware.
A test tube is the open cylindrical vessel for a small liquid, in borosilicate glass or in plastic. Rimmed and rimless mouths differ. The size is diameter by length. It is not graduated for a result, and a glass tube that will be centrifuged has a force limit.
A tube holds a small sample upright. A test tube is the open glass or plastic cylinder. A centrifuge tube is conical so a pellet forms at the tip, and it is rated for a centrifugal force the rotor will actually reach. A vial is a small closed bottle, often for a sample that will sit in an instrument. NMR tubes are a special case: the glass has to be uniform or the spectrum is the tube, not the sample. Laboratory ware is listed under ISO laboratory glassware.
