A variety of diff erent materials like PTFE, FEP, PFA, PEEK and others enable innovative products to be produced with excellent chemical resistance and high thermal resistance. Screw joints and ground joint components, tubing and connectors allow an infi nite number of combinations to create sophisticated systems of fl uid transfer using standard laboratory bottles and containers. For distillation of strong acids or alkaline products BOLA manufactures reaction vessels up to 6 litre capacity in PTFE or PFA. All parts exposed to the medium are either made completely of PTFE/PFA or jacketed like the thermometers. The BOLA catalogue also includes a wealth of technical information on the materials used including physical properties and chemical resistance and the safe use and care of fl uoroplastic labware. Further advice on the pressure resistance of tubing and the correct choice for pressure or vacuum applications make the catalogue a useful reference. www.labtex.co.uk Fluid Carrying PECM Issue 24 PECM117.indd 64 04/01/2017 2 Flexibility Articulated Torsion Pipework In Hoses Rotating Cylinders Swivel Joints Swivel joints allow pipework to rotate whilst carrying fluid under pressure 1/4” to 20” and beyond.
