Description
Plastic stoppers made of polyethylene (PE) to DIN 12254 are octagonal closures for standard ground joint 7/16 laboratory glassware. The PE material offers a lightweight, durable alternative to glass stoppers for sealing flasks, tubes, and other vessels with matching taper joints during storage, transport, and everyday bench work. The octagonal head improves grip and makes insertion and removal straightforward, even when wearing gloves. Conforming to DIN 12254 ensures dimensional compatibility with common European ground-joint systems used in teaching, research, and quality-control laboratories. Supplied in a pack of 10 pieces from manufacturer Lenz, these stoppers support efficient equipping of multiple setups without frequent reordering. Unit weight is 0,013 kg, keeping the pack easy to handle and store with other stoppers and clamps. They are well suited to non-aggressive media and general laboratory applications where a reliable PE taper stopper is preferred over glass, and they integrate cleanly into standard ground-joint glassware workflows.
This article is part of Ground-joint glass stoppers, in Stoppers, caps & closures.

Questions about Plastic stoppers, PE, DIN 12254, standard ground joint 7/16, octagonal
What is this article?
Plastic stoppers, PE, DIN 12254, standard ground joint 7/16, octagonal is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Lenz for laboratory use. It sits in Ground-joint glass stoppers, inside Stoppers, caps & closures, in Labware.
A ground-glass stopper matches a ground neck of a stated joint size. A 14/23 stopper does not seal a 29/32 neck. The stopper is part of the flask's seal, and a chip on the grind is a leak.
A closure is the part that decides whether a bottle stays shut and whether the contents attack the seal. A ground-glass stopper matches a ground neck. A screw cap needs the right thread and a liner that survives the liquid. Rubber and silicone stoppers push into a mouth. The liner, not the colour of the cap, is the chemical choice. The vessels they close are indexed under ISO laboratory glassware.
