Description
DURAN® short ground joint socket, ground, NS 14/15 is a precision laboratory glass component made from borosilicate glass 3.3. This short-joint variant is designed for installations with limited space and moderate sealing demands. Manufactured to DIN 12249 Form E, the finely ground surface provides lower roughness depth, reducing the risk of joint seizure and minimising grease requirement while achieving a very low leak rate. The standardised ground joint delivers a tight closure when mated with a matching cone. Intended as a glass article for further processing, it is used for incorporation into glass apparatus and laboratory devices. The socket is offered by manufacturer Duran/DWK Life Sciences and combines dimensional reliability with the chemical and thermal resistance typical of borosilicate glass 3.3. Its compact geometry supports space-saving assemblies without sacrificing connection integrity under ordinary laboratory conditions. Supplied as a single piece with a net weight of 0,022 kg, it is ready for workshop or laboratory integration into custom glassware systems.
This article is part of Distillation heads, adapters & columns, in Distillation & extraction glassware.

Questions about DURAN® Short Ground Socket, finished
What is this article?
DURAN® Short Ground Socket, finished is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes DWK Life Sciences for laboratory use. It sits in Distillation heads, adapters & columns, inside Distillation & extraction glassware, in Labware.
A still head, an adapter or a column is the glass between the boiling flask and the condenser. A Vigreux or packed column gives the vapour a surface so a closer-boiling mixture can separate. The joint sizes at both ends have to match the flask and the condenser.
Distillation separates liquids by boiling point. A condenser turns the vapour back into liquid: Liebig, coil and cold-finger shapes differ in how much cooling surface they offer. A still head and a column sit between the flask and the condenser. A Soxhlet extractor washes a solid again and again with the same solvent. Ground joints have a standard size, and the joint, not the flask, is what has to match. The pieces are indexed under ISO laboratory glassware.
