Description
KECK™ Adapter KA complete enables a secure transition from glass thread GL 14 to a plastic olive with hose diameter 4,5 mm. These adapters protect the glass thread from damage and ensure a rapid, safe and leak-tight connection. The threaded cap screws directly onto the external thread of the connection nozzle, while the hose section attaches and releases with only a quarter turn. Manufactured from borosilicate glass 3.3, the complete assembly from manufacturer Duran/DWK Life Sciences is intended for joining a tubing piece to a threaded cap in laboratory environments. The quarter-turn design allows tool-free coupling and decoupling, reducing wear on glassware and speeding workflow. Available for glass threads in sizes GL 14 and RD 14, the unit delivers consistent sealing performance. With a net weight of 0,01 kg, it remains lightweight yet durable for repeated daily use in analytical and general lab applications requiring reliable hose connections.

Questions about KECK™ Adapter KA , complete, from glass thread to hose connection plastic
What is this article?
KECK™ Adapter KA , complete, from glass thread to hose connection plastic 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.
