Description
Thread adapter Type 45 is a polytetrafluoroethylene laboratory fitting that converts an S60/61 female thread to a GL45 male thread for high-compatibility bottle and container connections. Manufactured from chemically inert PTFE, it provides excellent resistance to aggressive solvents, acids and bases encountered in demanding analytical and preparative work. The female-to-male design links S60/61 vessels or safety systems directly to standard GL45 necks widely used on laboratory bottles and waste containers. This Type 45 adapter from manufacturer SCAT is supplied as a single piece and integrates smoothly into existing solvent-safety and fluid-transfer setups. Its robust PTFE construction maintains dimensional stability and chemical integrity under repeated use while remaining lightweight and easy to handle. Particularly suited to HPLC waste management, corrosive reagent transfer and general high-purity chemical routing, the adapter helps laboratories unify connections across mixed glass and plastic inventories. Precise thread geometry ensures a tight, leak-resistant seal when correctly tightened, supporting safe and reliable laboratory workflows.

Questions about Thread adapter, Type 45
What is this article?
Thread adapter, Type 45 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.
