BOLA Modular Construction System – what you should know about.
The GL thread is one of the most current thread for glass devices. From BOLA you can obtain a complete modular construction system with different components with GL threads, which can be combined and thus ensure a simple transition from glass to plastics.
On the one hand, by means of the laboratory screw joints, tubes and hoses made of glass, metal or plastics can be connected easily to GL threads, no matter if a reaction vessel lid made of glass, a BOLA GL fitting made of PTFE or a multiple distributer made of PP is applied.
On the other hand, the construction of the laboratory screw joints v-ring, sealing ring and tapered ring ensures a tight connection, suitable for both vacuum as well as overpressure.
Beside this, exchanging the inner parts, tubes with different outer diameter can be connected to the same GL thread; e. g. for GL 14 this would be tubes with an outer diameter of 0,8 to 8 mm. Therefore, GL connecting pieces can also be used for the installation of a tube reduction.
