Description
Reducing adapter with straight tubing olive and sleeve 14/23 is a compact ground-joint component for connecting laboratory glassware to flexible tubing. The straight olive provides a secure hose barb for vacuum, inert-gas, or liquid transfer lines, while the 14/23 sleeve mates with matching conical joints in distillation, extraction, and general apparatus trains. Supplied as one piece with a low weight of 0,020 kg, the adapter is easy to integrate into existing setups without adding bulk. It is intended for glass components used in distillation and extraction assemblies where a reliable transition from a ground joint to tubing is required. Manufactured by Lenz, the piece supports modular configuration of laboratory glass systems and helps standardise joint sizes across multi-part apparatus. Clear sleeve designation simplifies selection alongside other 14/23 fittings, condensers, and receivers in preparative and analytical workflows.
This article is part of Hose connectors, adapters & fittings, in Tubing, hoses & fittings.

Questions about Reducing adapter, straight tubing olive, with sleeve 14/23, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
Reducing adapter, straight tubing olive, with sleeve 14/23, 1 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Lenz 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.
