Description
Thread adapter Type 66 is a laboratory fitting that converts a GL45 female thread to a GL38 male thread, enabling compatible connection between differently threaded bottles, caps and waste systems. Manufactured from polypropylene (PP), the adapter provides a lightweight, chemically resistant interface suitable for many aqueous and organic laboratory media. This Type 66 adapter from manufacturer SCAT is intended for solvent-handling and waste-collection setups where thread mismatch would otherwise prevent a secure seal. The GL45 (female) to GL38 (male) configuration supports straightforward integration into existing HPLC and general laboratory fluid paths without additional tooling. Supplied as a single piece, it offers a practical solution for laboratories that standardise on mixed container and closure systems. The polypropylene construction balances mechanical stability with broad chemical compatibility for routine analytical and preparative work. Use this adapter wherever a reliable GL45-to-GL38 transition is required in solvent safety or sample-handling assemblies.

Questions about Thread adapter, Type 66
What is this article?
Thread adapter, Type 66 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes SCAT 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.
