Borosilicate 3.3 Distillation Head
Distillation head manufactured in LBG borosilicate 3.3 glass. Connects the distillation flask to the condenser, with a side outlet for directing vapours towards the condenser.
Features
- Material: LBG borosilicate 3.3 glass
- Joints: Standardised ground glass — compatible with all components in the distillation train
- Chemical resistance: Organic solvents, dilute acids and moderate bases
- Thermal resistance: Withstands repeated thermal cycling without cracking
Applications
Simple and fractional distillation assemblies. Positioned between the flask and the condenser to carry vapours generated during heating. Also suitable for vacuum distillation setups when combined with the appropriate components.
Standard in organic chemistry, pharmaceutical, synthesis and quality control laboratories.
Why borosilicate 3.3
LBG borosilicate 3.3 is the industry standard for laboratory glassware for a specific reason: low coefficient of thermal expansion — meaning it handles sudden temperature changes without fracturing. It also shows no reactivity with most organic solvents or dilute acids, which matters when the distillate cannot be contaminated by glass fragments or leachates.
