Description
BOLA ground joint GL adapter features a black PPS screw cap for GL 45 threads and a movable PTFE insert with a female ground joint socket NS 45/40. The component bridges a large standard ground joint and a common laboratory bottle thread, enabling quick coupling of flasks, reactors or receivers to GL 45 vessels. Because the distributor body moves freely relative to the screw cap, the entire setup can be relocated onto another bottle without disassembly, and mounted hoses remain free from twisting. PTFE contact surfaces deliver very good chemical resistance for routine organic and aqueous work. Specified dimensions are bottle thread GL 45 and ground joint NS 45/40. Supplied as a single unit with a net weight of 0,0796 kg, this adapter from manufacturer Bohlender supports flexible laboratory configurations in synthesis, distillation and transfer applications where a robust, chemically inert GL-to-joint interface is needed without permanent glass modification.

Questions about BOLA Ground Joint GL Adaptors, GL 45, NS 45/40 (w) Ground joint socket NS 45/40
What is this article?
BOLA Ground Joint GL Adaptors, GL 45, NS 45/40 (w) Ground joint socket NS 45/40 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.
