Description
Hose olive, plastic, straight, GL18 is a laboratory hose coupling fitting for attaching flexible tubing to GL 18 threaded glassware and process apparatus. The straight olive is manufactured from PFA plastic and includes a silicone gasket, combining high chemical resistance of the body with a resilient sealing element for dependable hose connections. GL 18 compatibility covers standard laboratory bottles, flasks and vessels routinely used in analytical chemistry, synthesis and quality-control laboratories. With a net weight of 0,002 kg the component is compact and easy to handle during assembly, maintenance or system reconfiguration. Straight form factor supports clean inline hose routing without elbows, helping keep tubing runs short and organised on the bench. This plastic hose olive from manufacturer Witeg is suited to Schlauchkupplungen applications and general fluid-transfer tasks where inert polymer materials are preferred. Supplied as one piece, it can be used as a spare or as part of a new GL 18 tubing setup. PFA construction together with the silicone seal addresses the need for durable, chemically compatible olives in everyday laboratory media handling and hose coupling work.

Questions about Plastic hose sonnection straight GL 14
What is this article?
Plastic hose sonnection straight GL 14 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Witeg 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.
