Description
DURAN® spherical joint ball, imperial size S 13/5, is a precision borosilicate glass 3.3 component for flexible laboratory glass connections. Conforming to DIN 12244 and DIN 12264, it enables bendable joints of up to 15° depending on joint size; above approximately 5° a reduction in tightness should be expected. The nominal size refers to the nominal diameter of the spherical joint. Joint connections are intended for use with joint grease or PTFE sleeves, while spherical joint clamps with locking screws secure the assembly. This non-self-supporting glass article from manufacturer Duran/DWK Life Sciences is supplied for further processing and integration into glass apparatus and devices. It is suitable for vacuum applications and offers improved releasability thanks to the flexibility of the spherical joint. The single-piece unit has a net weight of 0,008 kg and supports reliable construction of laboratory systems that require limited angular mobility without rigid alignment constraints.
This article is part of Ground-joint glassware (other), in Distillation & extraction glassware.

Questions about DURAN® Spherical Joint, ball inches size
What is this article?
DURAN® Spherical Joint, ball inches size is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes DWK Life Sciences for laboratory use. It sits in Ground-joint glassware (other), inside Distillation & extraction glassware, in Labware.
This is ground-joint glassware that is not a head, a condenser or a Soxhlet: receivers, blank joints, odd adapters. A ground joint is named by the wide end and the length, such as 29/32. Mismatched joints do not seal, even with grease.
Distillation separates liquids by boiling point. A condenser turns the vapour back into liquid: Liebig, coil and cold-finger shapes differ in how much cooling surface they offer. A still head and a column sit between the flask and the condenser. A Soxhlet extractor washes a solid again and again with the same solvent. Ground joints have a standard size, and the joint, not the flask, is what has to match. The pieces are indexed under ISO laboratory glassware.
Which category should I open next?
