Description
Distilling head 1 FA12, 1 FA10, GL18/6 is a laboratory glassware adapter intended for integration into distillation assemblies, enabling controlled vapour transfer between reaction flasks and downstream condensers or receivers. It incorporates one FA12 connection, one FA10 connection and one GL18/6 thread interface for secure coupling to compatible tubing or fittings. Offered as a single-piece unit with a net weight of 0,022 kg and matching gross weight of 0,022 kg, the compact head supports efficient set-up of simple or fractional distillation trains used in organic synthesis, solvent recovery and purification workflows. The geometry facilitates reliable vapour-path management while remaining lightweight for convenient handling during assembly and dismantling. This component from manufacturer Witeg originates in Germany (Baden-Württemberg) and fits standard laboratory joint systems employed in research, teaching and quality-control environments. Its design contributes to stable operation under typical atmospheric or reduced-pressure conditions without adding unnecessary bulk to the apparatus. Suitable for routine analytical and preparative chemistry tasks, the distilling head provides a practical link between flasks and cooling or collection stages, helping maintain process integrity throughout multi-step separations.

Questions about Recovery head, 1 FA 12, 1 FA 10, 1 GL 1
What is this article?
Recovery head, 1 FA 12, 1 FA 10, 1 GL 1 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Witeg for laboratory use. It sits in Distillation heads, adapters & columns, inside Distillation & extraction glassware, in Labware.
A still head, an adapter or a column is the glass between the boiling flask and the condenser. A Vigreux or packed column gives the vapour a surface so a closer-boiling mixture can separate. The joint sizes at both ends have to match the flask and the condenser.
Distillation separates liquids by boiling point. A condenser turns the vapour back into liquid: Liebig, coil and cold-finger shapes differ in how much cooling surface they offer. A still head and a column sit between the flask and the condenser. A Soxhlet extractor washes a solid again and again with the same solvent. Ground joints have a standard size, and the joint, not the flask, is what has to match. The pieces are indexed under ISO laboratory glassware.
