   • Increased internal diameter enhances fractioning and vapor condensation, reducing clogging risks.

2. High-Quality Glassware

   • Made from heavy-wall borosilicate glass 3.3 for durability and resistance to thermal shock.
   • Vacuum-jacketed vapor channel improves insulation, maintaining process integrity.

3. Enhanced Connectivity

   • Includes PTFE 14/20 and 24/40 thermo inlet adapters with Viton gaskets for secure, reliable seals.
   • Features GL-16 adapters and 3/8" hose barbs for compatibility with recirculating fluid and vacuum systems.

4. Modular Setup

   • Supports multiple receiving flasks for efficient collection of fractions.
   • Designed to work with optional T1 or T40 cold traps to protect vacuum pumps from contamination by condensed vapors.

5. Thermometer Ports

   • Boiling flask thermo port: 24/40 joint.
   • Distillation head thermo port: 14/20 joints.

6. Compact and Lightweight

   • Shipping dimensions: 29 x 23 x 13 inches.
   • Weight: 20 lbs.

Glassware Specifications

Optional Cold Traps
