Description
Bag cock according to Schiff, NS 18,8 is a laboratory glass stopcock intended for controlled fluid and gas handling in scientific glassware. It is fitted with a hollow NS glass plug, ground joint size NS 18,8 and a bore of 4 mm. The component measures 10 × 110 mm and is produced for reliable fit in conical-joint assemblies. This Schiff-type bag cock is applied in vacuum lines, gas-transfer setups and custom apparatus where a robust shut-off valve with standard joint compatibility is essential. Available as a single piece from manufacturer Witeg, it has a net weight of 0,053 kg and connects readily to matching laboratory glassware. The hollow plug geometry allows smooth operation and secure sealing under normal laboratory conditions. It is suitable for organic synthesis, distillation systems and analytical workflows that demand precise flow regulation. The NS 18,8 interface supports interchangeability with corresponding ground-joint components in research and industrial laboratories.

Questions about Bag-stopcock, Schiff, ST 18,8
What is this article?
Bag-stopcock, Schiff, ST 18,8 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Witeg for laboratory use. It sits in Stopcocks & valves, inside Tubing, hoses & fittings, in Labware.
A stopcock opens and closes a line, or directs it between ports. Glass stopcocks have a ground plug that needs grease or a PTFE key. The bore decides the flow. A two-way and a three-way key are different parts.
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.
