Description
Nalgene™ T-Type tubing connectors are non-tapered T-style fittings that help maximise liquid flow in laboratory tubing systems. Made from polypropylene (PP) resin and free from animal-derived components, these three-way connectors are intended for tubing with an inner diameter of 1/4 in., matching a largest tubing inner diameter of 6,3 mm. Each fitting has an outer diameter of 1/4 in. and an overall length of 38,1 mm (1.5 in.), forming a compact branch point for fluid lines. The connectors are autoclavable and can be included in routine laboratory sterilisation workflows where polypropylene is appropriate. Supplied as a case of 72 pieces from manufacturer Thermo Scientific, the pack supports equipping multiple benches or maintaining spare junctions for common tubing runs. The T-configuration provides three ports for splitting or joining flow paths without conical transitions that can restrict throughput. With a pack gross weight of 0,190 kg, these polypropylene connectors suit general fluid-handling tasks in research, analytical and process laboratories. Pair them with flexible tubing of matching inner diameter to keep flow paths consistent across experimental and routine laboratory setups.

Questions about Nalgene™ Tubing T-Type Connectors
What is this article?
Nalgene™ Tubing T-Type Connectors is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics 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.
