Bosshead Cross Type 18/10 Stainless Steel (Product Code: SLE/BH/04) is a cross-pattern stainless steel bosshead used to clamp two rods either at right angles or in line (angle 90+180) when building frames and extended supports in laboratories. It is listed with d/Ø 16,5 in thread 6 and thread 8 versions, takes socket, heart or heart-type safety screws, and suits wet chemistry rooms where corrosion resistance matters. The bosshead is produced by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer working from its own factory in Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Cross Type Stainless Steel Bosshead Used For?

The extra 180° position is what sets this bosshead apart. At 90° it behaves like a normal bosshead, holding a clamp or cross-bar out from the stand rod; at 180° the two rods run side by side, which is useful for extending a rod, doubling up a support so a long condenser is held at two points, or building a rectangular frame over a bench for a chromatography tank or gas collection setup. Because both positions come from one fitting, technicians can keep fewer parts in stock while still covering most arrangements.

The 18/10 stainless steel body resists acids, salt solutions and cleaning agents, so it suits wet chemistry and biology rooms as well as laboratory distillation apparatus in college practicals. Tighten one screw at a time, check the alignment of the second rod before the final turn, and never hang glassware from a joint that has not been checked by hand.

What to Specify When Ordering

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the 90+180 angle of the Bosshead Cross Type 18/10 Stainless Steel mean?
The Bosshead Cross Type 18/10 Stainless Steel can hold its two clamped rods crossing at 90° or aligned at 180°, running in line or parallel. This gives more layout options than a standard right-angle bosshead when you build frames or extend rods.

Two versions of the Bosshead Cross Type 18/10 Stainless Steel are listed: thread 6 and thread 8, both with d/Ø 16,5 (sixteen and a half, decimal comma). Tell ScienceLab your rod diameter and preferred thread so the right version is quoted.

Which screws can be fitted to the Bosshead Cross Type 18/10 Stainless Steel?

When should I choose the Bosshead Cross Type 18/10 Stainless Steel instead of a standard bosshead?
