Description
BOLA ground joint GL adapter for GLS 80 with NS 45/40 female ground joint socket connects a larger standard ground joint to a glass bottle thread in one compact fitting. The blue polypropylene screw cap is designed for GLS 80 bottle threads, and the movable insert with the ground joint is manufactured from polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). The distributor body rotates freely relative to the screw cap, allowing the entire setup to be transferred to another vessel without prior disassembly and without twisting attached hoses. PTFE construction delivers very good chemical resistance for laboratory use. Dimensional specification is bottle thread GLS 80 with ground joint NS 45/40. Net weight is 0,056 kg, and the article is supplied as one piece. From manufacturer Bohlender, this adapter supports coupling of NS 45/40 glassware to GLS-threaded bottles in preparative, analytical and general laboratory workflows. Independent movement of the PTFE joint insert keeps tubing orientation stable when bottles are exchanged or apparatus is rearranged on the bench.

What is this article?
BOLA Ground Joint GL Adaptors, GLS 80, NS 45/40 (w) Ground joint socket NS 45/40 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Bohlender 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.
