Chemglass Short Path Distilling Head Jacketed 10/18 Thermometer Joint 14/20 Lower Joint

The Chemglass CG-1240-05 Short Path Distilling Head is a specialized piece of glassware crafted for the efficient distillation of small to moderate quantities of materials, particularly those that are sensitive to prolonged heating or necessitate high vacuum conditions. It is constructed from durable borosilicate glass, which guarantees both chemical resistance and thermal stability. A key feature of this distilling head is its jacketed design. This means the main body of the head possesses an outer shell through which a heating or cooling fluid, typically from an external circulating bath, can be circulated. This capability enables precise temperature control of the vapor path, which is critically important for efficient separation and to prevent either premature condensation or re-evaporation of the distillate.
