About This Product
In distillation, reflux and other jointed glassware setups, a clip placed over the joint helps keep the matched cone and socket together. The full apparatus is still clamped separately so that the clip does not carry the load. The clips can also replace ones missing from school glassware sets.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. Can joint clips be used in place of clamps? No. They retain the joint, but the apparatus still needs proper clamps so that the clip does not carry excess load.
