Description
Inner centring ring/PTFE DN 40 with Viton O-ring is a precision sealing component intended for accurate alignment and reliable sealing of laboratory flange connections. The PTFE construction offers superior chemical resistance while the integrated Viton O-ring supplies the necessary elasticity for a tight, reusable seal at the DN 40 size. Weighing only 0,010 kg net, the ring remains lightweight yet mechanically stable for everyday use in glassware, vacuum and process apparatus. It functions equally well as an original part or as a replacement spare within existing laboratory systems. Manufactured in Germany under the Rettberg ® trademark and supplied by manufacturer Rettberg, the component belongs to the seals product category. Its design supports leak-free joints in chemical synthesis, analytical instrumentation and research environments where inert materials and long service life are required. Packaged as 1 pc, the ring enables straightforward ordering for maintenance or new assemblies, helping laboratories maintain system integrity and minimise downtime caused by worn or missing centring seals.

Questions about Inner centering ring/PTFE DN 40, with Viton-O-Ring
What is this article?
Inner centering ring/PTFE DN 40, with Viton-O-Ring is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Rettberg 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.
