Description
DURAN® Reducing adapter with socket NS 29/32 and cone NS 50/42 is a ground-glass joint fitting designed to connect two laboratory components that carry different standard joint (NS) sizes. Manufactured from borosilicate glass 3.3, the adapter bridges a socket of NS 29/32 with a larger cone of NS 50/42, allowing glassware of unequal joint dimensions to be combined in one apparatus. Such reducing pieces are widely employed in modular laboratory assemblies where flexible joint matching is required while preserving a tight, chemically resistant seal. The component comes from manufacturer Duran/DWK Life Sciences under the established DURAN® trademark and is supplied as a single piece. With a net weight of 0,06 kg it is suitable for everyday use in organic synthesis, distillation, extraction and analytical setups. Primary application is the reliable connection of two parts with differing Normschliff sizes, helping laboratories integrate existing glassware without purchasing complete matching sets. Borosilicate glass 3.3 provides the thermal shock resistance and chemical durability expected in professional laboratory environments.

Questions about DURAN® Reduction Adapter , socket/cone
What is this article?
DURAN® Reduction Adapter , socket/cone is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes DWK Life Sciences 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.
