The Adapter Recovery Bend with Sloping End is a precision-engineered connector designed to direct condensate or recovered solvents efficiently during distillation and extraction processes. Its sloped outlet provides controlled flow, minimises product loss, and ensures compatibility with a wide range of laboratory glass systems. Ideal for both research and industrial environments, it enhances workflow efficiency and operational safety.
Key Features
- Manufactured from high-purity Borosilicate Glass 3.3 for superior chemical and thermal resistance.
- Sloping-end design enables smooth, gravity-assisted recovery of solvents and distillates.
- Standard ground taper joints ensure secure, leak-free, and universal compatibility.
- Excellent durability due to uniform wall thickness and robust glass construction.
- Clear transparency for easy observation of liquid movement.
- Resistant to corrosion, thermal stress, and repeated heating/cooling cycles.
- Suitable for modular glassware setups across diverse applications.
Material Specifications
Material: Borosilicate Glass 3.3 (ISO 3585 compliant)

- Standards: Glass conforms to international laboratory glass standards.
Technical Specifications
(Specifications vary with selected joint sizes.)
- Available Joint Sizes: 14/23, 19/26, 24/29, 29/32, 34/35, or other standard taper sizes.
- Design: Recovery bend with sloping end for directed liquid flow.
- Dimensions: Precision-crafted for accurate alignment with standard glass assemblies.
- Tolerance: Tight manufacturing tolerances ensure consistent and leak-proof connections.
- Calibration: Not applicable (non-volumetric).
- Accessories Included: None (compatible with all standard glassware systems).
Handling & Precautions
- Handle with care to avoid impact on joints and bend areas.
- Avoid rapid temperature changes; allow glass to heat or cool gradually.
- Suitable for autoclaving; dry heat resistance typically up to 500°C.
- Clean using non-abrasive laboratory detergents; rinse thoroughly with distilled water.
- Do not use metal brushes or abrasive media that may scratch the glass surface.
- Always check for cracks or chipping before use.
- Store in padded racks or upright to protect ground joints.
