Description
Screw cap GL 18 made of PBT for tubing feed-throughs with outer diameter 6 mm is a laboratory screw closure designed for secure hose and pipe passages. Manufactured from polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) and fitted with a PTFE inner part, it provides a reliable mechanical interface for GL 18 threaded connections commonly used in laboratory glassware and apparatus setups. The 6 mm outer-diameter feed-through geometry supports controlled tubing or tubing-line routing while maintaining a stable seal at the thread. This screw cap from manufacturer Rettberg is intended for general laboratory material handling where a durable polymer closure with chemical-resistant PTFE contact surfaces is required. Supplied as a single piece with a net weight of 0,010 kg, it suits assembly, replacement or system configuration tasks involving GL 18 ports. The combination of PBT body and PTFE insert supports routine laboratory workflows that demand dependable screw closures for hose and pipe feed-through applications without unnecessary complexity.

Questions about Screw cap GL 18 from PBT, for tube leadthrough outer-Ø 6 mm
What is this article?
Screw cap GL 18 from PBT, for tube leadthrough outer-Ø 6 mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Rettberg for laboratory use. It sits in Screw caps & closures, inside Stoppers, caps & closures, in Labware.
A screw cap has a thread and a liner. The thread has to match the bottle. The liner has to survive the liquid: a pulp liner fails in a solvent that a PTFE-faced liner ignores. The colour of the cap is not the specification.
A closure is the part that decides whether a bottle stays shut and whether the contents attack the seal. A ground-glass stopper matches a ground neck. A screw cap needs the right thread and a liner that survives the liquid. Rubber and silicone stoppers push into a mouth. The liner, not the colour of the cap, is the chemical choice. The vessels they close are indexed under ISO laboratory glassware.
