Description
Nalgene™ T-Type Tubing Connectors are non-tapered T-shaped fittings intended to maximise liquid flow in laboratory tubing assemblies. Made from polypropylene (PP) resin and free from animal-derived components, each three-way connector is designed for tubing with an inner diameter of 1/8 in. (3,1 mm). The outer diameter is 1/8 in. and the overall length is 20,57 mm (0,81 in.), giving a compact junction for branching or combining fluid lines. The connectors are autoclavable, supporting repeated sterilisation in research, biotech and general laboratory workflows. Supplied as a case of 72 pieces from manufacturer Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics, they suit routine fluid-handling setups where polypropylene chemical resistance and unrestricted T-configuration flow paths are required. With three connection points, the fittings enable straightforward distribution of liquid streams without tapered restrictions. They are intended for use with matching flexible tubing I.D. in analytical, process and sample-transfer applications where reliable, animal-component-free plastic connectors are preferred.
This article is part of Hose connectors, adapters & fittings, in Tubing, hoses & fittings.

Questions about Nalgene™ Tubing T-Type Connectors
What is this article?
Nalgene™ Tubing T-Type Connectors is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics 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.
