Adapters Receiver - Straight Stem
An Adapter Receiver Straight Stem is a laboratory glassware component used in distillation setups to safely and efficiently transfer distillate from a condenser to a receiving flask or other collection vessel. It features a straight, tube-like stem that provides a direct path for the distillate to flow.
Connection: The adapter typically has a ground glass joint on one end for connection to the condenser.
Straight Stem: The "straight stem" refers to the shape of the adapter's outlet, which is a simple, direct tube. This design ensures a smooth and unimpeded flow of the distillate.
Drip Tip: Some adapters have a drip tip or a delivery stem to ensure that the liquid flows smoothly and doesn't splash or drip outside the receiving flask.
NS Joint Connector: Also known as a ground joint connector, is a type of connector used in laboratory glassware to create a secure, airtight, and grease-free seal between two glass pieces. These connectors are commonly used in chemistry and other scientific fields for transferring liquids or gases, particularly in situations where contamination needs to be avoided.
A 19/26 joint connector refers to a ground glass joint with a 19mm outer diameter at the top of the male joint (or inner diameter at the top of the female joint) and a 26mm length of the ground glass taper. This standardized size ensures interchangeability between different pieces of glassware, facilitating the construction of complex setups for experiments.
Materials: Distillation delivery adapters are typically made of borosilicate glass due to its resistance to high temperatures and chemical corrosion.
