Description
BOLA Elbow Fittings GL EX, GL 18 with Ø 10,5 mm bore are L-shaped connecting pieces made from conductive PTFE-EX for laboratory fluid handling. Each fitting provides two GL-threaded ports designed for secure attachment of tubing or rigid pipes when used with matching BOLA laboratory screw joints EX. The conductive PTFE-EX construction supports static-dissipative installations where electrostatic charge build-up must be controlled.
This article is part of Hose connectors, adapters & fittings, in Tubing, hoses & fittings.
Key dimensions include a GL 18 thread, a through-bore of 10,5 mm, an overall length of 39 mm without screw joints, and a 20 mm square wrench size for straightforward installation. The component is supplied as a single piece and has a net weight of 0,0286 kg. Manufactured from polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) in the conductive EX grade, these elbow fittings from manufacturer Bohlender suit demanding chemical environments that require both chemical resistance and electrical conductivity. They integrate cleanly into modular laboratory tubing systems for media transfer, sampling lines, and process connections where GL-thread geometry is specified.

Questions about BOLA GL Tube Fitting Elbow EX, GL 18 Ø 10,5 mm made of conductive PTFE-EX
What is this article?
BOLA GL Tube Fitting Elbow EX, GL 18 Ø 10,5 mm made of conductive PTFE-EX is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Bohlender 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.
