An adapter, air leak tube is a type of laboratory glassware component that is used to detect leaks in apparatus or to monitor the flow of gases in a laboratory setting. It consists of a glass tube with a ground glass joint at one end and a sidearm with a smaller joint at the other end. The air leak tube adapter allows for the connection of two pieces of glassware with different joint sizes, and the tube provides a pathway for the flow of gases.

The air leak tube adapter is typically filled with a liquid, such as water, that allows for the detection of leaks in the apparatus by observing the flow of bubbles in the liquid. If a leak is present in the apparatus, air will escape and bubbles will form in the liquid, indicating the location of the leak.

The air leak tube adapter is commonly used in laboratory distillation, synthesis, and other chemical processes, where it is important to detect and prevent leaks in the apparatus. The air leak tube adapter is an important component in many laboratory procedures and is widely used in chemical and analytical applications.
