Description
Cross double bosshead malleable cast iron, DIN 12895, d=16,5 mm is a laboratory clamp fitting for secure, right-angle and in-line rod connections in retort stands and scaffolding setups. Manufactured from malleable cast iron with a chrome finish, it follows DIN 12895 and offers a clamping diameter of 16,5 mm with M8 thread and a wing screw for firm, tool-free tightening. The geometry supports 90° and 180° orientations, making it practical for building stable multi-rod frameworks around hotplates, baths, and reaction apparatus. With a net weight of about 138,0 g (0,14 kg), the compact cross double bosshead from manufacturer Bochem balances rigidity and handling convenience on the bench. It is supplied as a single piece for routine assembly of stands, frames, and support structures where durable metal clamps and chrome-plated surfaces are preferred in teaching, research, and industrial laboratories.

Questions about Bosshead malleable cast iron, DIN, 12895, d=16,5mm
What is this article?
Bosshead malleable cast iron, DIN, 12895, d=16,5mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Bochem for laboratory use. It sits in Clamps & bossheads, inside Stands, clamps & racks, in Labware.
A bosshead grips the rod. A clamp grips the flask or the condenser, usually through two jaws with cork or vinyl faces. Three-finger and two-finger clamps hold different shapes. The jaw opening is the specification.
A stand, a clamp and a rack hold something still so the hands can do the work. A bosshead locks a clamp to a rod. A test-tube rack keeps tubes upright and in an order the operator can read back. The failure is almost always mechanical: the clamp slips, or the rack does not match the tube diameter. The glass they support is indexed under ISO laboratory glassware.
