Description
SVS hose coupling GL18 is a straight laboratory hose coupling supplied with a cap, an 11 mm diameter olive, a threaded tube and a silicone gasket, executed in PFA. The GL18 thread provides a standardised screw connection for laboratory vessels and tubing systems, while the olive allows secure hose attachment for fluid transfer. PFA construction offers the chemical resistance expected of fluoropolymer components in demanding laboratory environments, complemented by the silicone gasket for sealing at the joint. The coupling is delivered as a single piece with a net weight of 0,025 kg and a gross weight of 0,025 kg, forming a complete assembly ready for installation. This version is from manufacturer Witeg and originates in Germany (Baden-Württemberg). It is intended for laboratories that specify GL18 interfaces and prefer a PFA body with silicone sealing for hose lines handling more aggressive media than standard plastics allow. The straight layout with integrated cap, olive, threaded tube and gasket keeps the connection compact and serviceable on analytical and process benches.

Questions about SVS-tubing connection GL 18
What is this article?
SVS-tubing connection GL 18 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.
