Description
The boss head in malleable cast iron, chrome-plated, with d=13 mm and hexagon socket screw is a laboratory clamp fitting for securing rods and apparatus at a right angle. It provides a 90° connection, uses an M6 thread, and is tightened via an internal hexagon socket screw for firm, repeatable locking on the retort stand. The largest clamping span is 13 mm, matching the stated diameter, so it suits standard laboratory rods of that size in lattice and cross-clamp arrangements. Chrome plating over the malleable cast iron body gives a durable, cleanable surface suited to everyday bench use. This fitting from manufacturer Bochem weighs 82,0 g (net weight 0,08 kg) and is supplied as a single piece. It is classified among double and cross boss heads used to build stable support frameworks for glassware, sensors, and other apparatus. Laboratories assembling or expanding stand systems can integrate the chrome-plated boss head wherever a compact 13 mm, 90° clamp joint with hexagon socket fastening is required.
This article is part of Clamps & bossheads, in Stands, clamps & racks.

What is this article?
Bosshead for frames malleable cast iron, , chrome plated, d=13mm, socket s is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Bochem for laboratory use. It sits in Clamps & bossheads, inside Stands, clamps & racks, in Labware.
A bosshead grips the rod. A clamp grips the flask or the condenser, usually through two jaws with cork or vinyl faces. Three-finger and two-finger clamps hold different shapes. The jaw opening is the specification.
A stand, a clamp and a rack hold something still so the hands can do the work. A bosshead locks a clamp to a rod. A test-tube rack keeps tubes upright and in an order the operator can read back. The failure is almost always mechanical: the clamp slips, or the rack does not match the tube diameter. The glass they support is indexed under ISO laboratory glassware.
