Description
DURAN® Patent stopcock key with thread, ground, NS 18,8 and 4 mm bore is a solid two-way stopcock plug designed for installation in glass apparatus and laboratory devices. Ground DURAN® patent stopcock keys feature two approximately parallel oblique bores that enable controlled passage of fluids or gases within assembled glass systems. The precision-ground surfaces together with the integrated thread ensure secure seating and a reliable seal in matching NS joints. Manufactured from borosilicate glass 3.3, the key delivers the chemical resistance and thermal stability expected of high-quality laboratory glassware. This single-piece component comes from manufacturer Duran/DWK Life Sciences and is intended for incorporation into glass apparatus and instruments. Its solid construction, larger NS 18,8 joint size and 4 mm bore make it well suited as a replacement or build element for laboratory glass assemblies that require robust, interchangeable ground stopcock fittings. The defined geometry supports consistent performance in standard experimental setups.

Questions about DURAN® Stopcock Key long for double bore, threaded, ground
What is this article?
DURAN® Stopcock Key long for double bore, threaded, ground is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes DWK Life Sciences for laboratory use. It sits in Stopcocks & valves, inside Tubing, hoses & fittings, in Labware.
A stopcock opens and closes a line, or directs it between ports. Glass stopcocks have a ground plug that needs grease or a PTFE key. The bore decides the flow. A two-way and a three-way key are different parts.
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.
