Description
Thread adapter Type 36 is a polypropylene (PP) laboratory fitting that converts an S70/71 female thread to a GL45 male thread. This adapter creates a stable mechanical link between large S-series bottle threads and the common GL45 laboratory standard, supporting secure fluid transfer and vessel connections. Constructed from polypropylene, it combines chemical resistance with low weight for convenient handling during installation and system reconfiguration. The Type 36 configuration from manufacturer SCAT addresses laboratories that need a dedicated plastic interface between S70/71 and GL45 threads rather than improvised multi-piece solutions. Supplied as a single piece, the adapter is suitable for solvent reservoirs, waste containers and general laboratory bottle systems where standardised thread matching improves reliability. Its PP material is appropriate for typical laboratory chemical environments and helps maintain consistent engagement on both thread sides. By bridging S70/71 and GL45 formats, the adapter simplifies equipment layouts in analytical, preparative and routine laboratory work that relies on these established thread geometries.

Questions about Thread adapter, Type 36
What is this article?
Thread adapter, Type 36 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes SCAT 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.
