Description

[table id=593 /]

The MEDILAB Adapter Socket to Cone with Tee Connection is a precision-made glass adapter designed to link a standard socket joint to a cone joint while providing an additional hose-connection side arm. This versatile connector enables simultaneous attachment to glass apparatus and flexible tubing, supporting vacuum lines, gas inlet systems, distillation setups, and multi-flow configurations. Its accurate joint machining and durable Tee design make it a valuable component for laboratories requiring dependable fluid or gas transfer pathways.

Key Features

• Dual-purpose connection: Socket-to-cone joint converter with an integrated side-arm hose barb.
• An efficient Tee configuration allows parallel gas/liquid routing without disrupting the main flow.
• Precision-ground joints ensure secure, leak-free, and vacuum-tight operation.
• High clarity for easy visualization of fluid movement.
• Manufactured from premium Borosilicate Glass 3.3 for exceptional durability and chemical resistance.
• The ribbed hose connector ensures a firm grip and prevents accidental disconnection.
• Heat and chemical resistant, suitable for demanding laboratory processes.
• Reusable and autoclavable, designed for long-term laboratory service.
• Compatible with standard international joint sizes commonly used in research and industry.

• Side-arm Tubing Port: Ribbed nozzle suitable for standard rubber tubing diameters
• Tolerance: Manufactured with precision-ground joint tolerances for an airtight fit
• Calibration: Not required (non-volumetric component)
• Accessories: Adapter only (no additional parts)

Handling & Precautions

• Fit tubing gently to avoid exerting torque on the side arm.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners; wash with mild lab detergents or standard glass-cleaning solutions.
• Autoclavable; allow gradual heating/cooling to avoid thermal shock.
• Avoid direct flame contact with joints or the side arms.
• Inspect regularly for cracks, joint wear, or stress marks before use.
• Store vertically or in padded holders to prevent accidental breakage.

Applications

The Adapter Socket to Cone with Tee Connection is widely used across:

• Chemical, analytical, and physical science laboratories
• Pharmaceutical R&D and QC laboratories
• Biotechnology and life science facilities
• Academic and teaching laboratories
• Industrious setups involving vacuum lines, inert gas purging, multi-directional flow routing, distillation systems, extraction units, and filtration assemblies
• Its Tee-side tubing port makes it particularly useful for introducing gases, drawing a vacuum, or diverting flow without interrupting the main assembly.
