Description
Aluminium clamp for small flange DN16 standard (not suitable for thick-walled) is a fastening component for laboratory small-flange connections. Made of aluminium, this standard clamp is sized for DN16 Kleinflansch (small flange) joints and is explicitly not intended for thick-walled tubing or components. It serves as a mechanical clamp for securing DN16 flanges commonly encountered in Schlenk apparatus and Schlenk flasks. Supplied as a single piece from manufacturer Rettberg, the clamp provides a straightforward means of joining compatible standard-wall small-flange fittings in vacuum and inert-atmosphere glassware systems. The aluminium construction keeps the part lightweight while delivering the rigidity needed for routine laboratory clamping. Users must select this standard version only when working with regular wall thicknesses; thick-walled variants require a different clamp design. The item belongs to the accessory range supporting Schlenk-line and related glass apparatus that utilise DN16 small flanges.
This article is part of Hose connectors, adapters & fittings, in Tubing, hoses & fittings.

Questions about Aluminum clamp for small flange DN16 standard (not suitable for heavy-wall
What is this article?
Aluminum clamp for small flange DN16 standard (not suitable for heavy-wall 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.
