Description
Retort Clamp is a standard laboratory clamp designed for holding glassware at the ground joint to achieve perfect vertical alignment. Its four jaws, lined with cork on the inside and aluminium on the outside, securely grip vessels and apparatus with diameters ranging from 2 to 85 mm. This versatile clamp is ideal for securing flasks, condensers, columns and other glassware during synthesis, distillation, extraction or reflux procedures. From manufacturer Heidolph, it delivers dependable everyday performance in research, quality-control and teaching laboratories. The cork lining protects delicate glass surfaces against scratching while the aluminium exterior combines durability with low weight. Net weight is 0,155 kg. Compatible with common retort stands and laboratory support systems, the clamp helps maintain stable, organised reaction assemblies and minimises the risk of glassware movement or slippage during extended experimental runs.

Questions about Retort Clamp
What is this article?
Retort Clamp is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Heidolph for laboratory use. It sits in Clamps & bossheads, inside Stands, clamps & racks, in Labware.
A bosshead grips the rod. A clamp grips the flask or the condenser, usually through two jaws with cork or vinyl faces. Three-finger and two-finger clamps hold different shapes. The jaw opening is the specification.
A stand, a clamp and a rack hold something still so the hands can do the work. A bosshead locks a clamp to a rod. A test-tube rack keeps tubes upright and in an order the operator can read back. The failure is almost always mechanical: the clamp slips, or the rack does not match the tube diameter. The glass they support is indexed under ISO laboratory glassware.
