Round Bottom Boiling Flasks with Socketed Single Neck

Round bottom boiling flasks with a socketed single neck are standard pieces of laboratory glassware designed for use in a wide range of chemical processes, including heating, boiling, distillation, and reflux reactions. The socketed (ground glass) joint allows for a secure, leak-tight connection with other jointed glassware components, such as condensers or adapters.

Features: 

• Material: Borosilicate glass 3.3, which offers excellent resistance to heat, chemicals, and thermal shock, allowing for direct heating with a mantle or open flame.
• Design: The spherical bottom provides uniform heating and greater stability under vacuum, as the stress is more evenly distributed across the surface compared to a flat bottom flask.
• Neck: The single neck features an outer ground glass joint (socket) at the opening.
• Joint Sizes: The ground glass joints come in standardized sizes, designated by a diameter and height measurement (e.g., 19/26, 24/29, 24/40, 29/32), ensuring interchangeability with other standard laboratory equipment.
• Capacity: These flasks are available in a variety of capacities, ranging from small sizes like 25 mL or 50 mL to much larger volumes of 5000 mL (5 L) and more.
• Stability: Due to their round base, they cannot stand on their own and require the use of a cork ring or a specialized flask stand/clamp for support when not part of an assembled apparatus. 

 Common Applications: 

• Distillation: Used as the distilling flask or receiving flask in distillation setups.
• Reflux: Serves as the reaction vessel when a condenser is attached for a reflux procedure.
• Rotary Evaporators: Often used as the distilling flask in rotary evaporators to remove solvents.
• Chemical Reactions: Ideal for general heating, mixing, and reactions where an airtight seal is necessary to contain vapors or maintain an inert atmosphere.
