Description
Reducing adapter with standard ground joint is a DURAN® glassware fitting that links apparatus sections of different joint diameters in distillation and extraction systems. With a sleeve NS 60/46 and a core NS 45/40, this adapter creates a stepwise reduction between large and intermediate standard ground joints, supporting modular construction of reaction trains, condensers and receivers. Components of this type are widely used where flasks, columns and bridges must be combined without mismatched couplings. The piece comes from manufacturer Lenz and is made in DURAN® glass for compatibility with common European laboratory glass inventories. Supplied as one piece at 0,113 kg, it suits preparative chemistry, solvent handling and teaching laboratories that reconfigure glass apparatus regularly. Explicit sleeve and core sizes aid quick matching to existing NS joints and apparatus schemes. The reducing adapter belongs to ground-glass component ranges employed in distillation bridges and extraction lines. It helps maintain consistent joint geometry across multi-stage setups, supporting orderly assembly and disassembly in routine laboratory workflows that rely on interchangeable standard ground joints.

Questions about Reducing adapter, w. stand. ground joint, DURAN®, sleeve 60/46, core 45/40
What is this article?
Reducing adapter, w. stand. ground joint, DURAN®, sleeve 60/46, core 45/40 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.
