Description
Nalgene™ T-Type tubing connectors are non-tapered T-style fittings designed to maximise liquid flow in laboratory tubing assemblies. Produced from polypropylene (PP) resin and free from animal-derived components, these three-way connectors fit tubing with an inner diameter of 5/16 in., corresponding to a largest tubing inner diameter of 7,9 mm. The outer diameter is 5/16 in. and the overall length is 54,61 mm (2,15 in.), offering a practical branch geometry for medium-size fluid lines. The fittings are autoclavable, supporting standard sterilisation practice in laboratories that rely on polypropylene hardware. Delivered as a case of 72 pieces from manufacturer Thermo Scientific, the pack is suited to stocking multiple workstations or replenishing frequently used junctions. Three connection ports allow simple splitting or combining of flow paths without tapered steps that may limit throughput. Pack gross weight is 0,290 kg. These Nalgene™ connectors are intended for general laboratory fluid handling with flexible tubing of matching inner diameter in research, quality-control and process environments where reliable T-junctions are required.

Questions about Nalgene™ Tubing T-Type Connectors
What is this article?
Nalgene™ Tubing T-Type Connectors is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics 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.
