Laboratory Tubing Accessories
SKS Science offers plastic tubing connector kits that include Y connectors, quick disconnects, straight connectors, dura clamps, and T connectors in a plastic tray with compartments for easy storing. This assortment can be useful for stocking a laboratory or classroom. For more specialized requirements, SKS Science also provides separate purchasing options for lab tubing accessories to fit various lab needs.
Trimming may be required when first connecting plastic tubing to various machines and stations for accurate installation. Metal tube cutters are capable of cleanly cutting plastic tubing with outside diameters of 1.5 mm to 13 mm at a right angle. The pocket-size tube cutters are spring-loaded, which close automatically for added safety. The sharp blades are easy to replace and can be purchased separately when the blades have begun to dull.
Plastic stopcocks assist with controlling the flow of gas and liquids through the range of plastic tubing SKS Science has to offer. Red and white PP/PE stopcocks are available for pairing with 5 mm to 13 mm tubing sizes. These stopcocks include a mounting plate for quick installation and feature directional arrows and "off" printed on the top for easy use. The two-way stopcocks have a maximum operating temperature of 40° C and 14.5 psi maximum compression resistance.
Green and blue HDPE miniature stopcocks are available in 10 mm, 14 mm, and 16 mm sizes and are designed to be easily turned without the need for lubricants or grease. When handling even smaller plastic tubing, choose natural polypropylene miniature stopcocks, which are compatible with 8 mm diameter tubes.
White tube clamps are another option for controlling liquids and gas when used with plastic tubing. Mini and Medium dura tube clamps are composed of polypropylene, and the Maxi dura tube clamps are composed of polyester. All are autoclavable between uses. These tube clamps feature multiple positions and one-piece construction that creates a tight shut off to eliminate dripping, without rusting, corroding, or distorting over time. One-position polypropylene tube clamps are suitable for ETO sterilization and accept plastic tubing with 6 mm to 13 mm outer diameters. Use these versatile tube clamps with manual and automatic dispensers for fast and secure on/off control.
SKS Science offers flow indicators to measure the flow within plastic tubing. These indicators provide visual indications of gas or liquid flow by the rotation speed of the inner polypropylene ball. Pair these flow indicators with plastic tubing with inner diameters of 6.5 mm to 10 mm for accurate measuring. The minimum flow detected is 10-12 liters/hour; maximum flow is 330-390 liters/hour, while the maximum fluid temperature is 122° F.
