Description
Cross connector for 5 tubes, malleable cast iron, galvanised, d=26,9 mm provides a robust multi-way junction for laboratory scaffolding and support frameworks. Machined from malleable cast iron and finished with a protective galvanised coating, the fitting accepts five individual tubes of 26,9 mm outer diameter, enabling stable cross-bracing and multi-directional assembly of retort stands, frameworks and apparatus supports. With a net weight of 0,49 kg it offers solid mechanical strength while remaining easy to handle during set-up. The galvanised surface resists corrosion in typical laboratory atmospheres, ensuring long service life even under repeated assembly and disassembly. Ideal for constructing custom support structures for glassware, reaction vessels or analytical equipment, this connector from manufacturer Bochem delivers reliable clamping force and dimensional consistency. Its five-way geometry simplifies complex spatial arrangements without the need for additional adapters, making it a practical component for both teaching laboratories and research workshops requiring durable, reusable tube connectors.
This article is part of Hose connectors, adapters & fittings, in Tubing, hoses & fittings.

Questions about Four socket cross f. 5 tubes, malleable, cast iron, d=26,9mm
What is this article?
Four socket cross f. 5 tubes, malleable, cast iron, d=26,9mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Bochem 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.
