Bosshead Swivel Type, 18/10 Stainless Steel
Bosshead Swivel Type, 18/10 Stainless Steel (Product Code: SLE/BH/07) is a swivelling stainless steel bosshead used to hold a clamp or rod at any angle from 0 to 360° on a laboratory stand. Chemistry and physics teachers use it to set condensers, delivery tubes and optical parts on a slope; it is listed with d/Ø 16,5, thread 6 and a heart screw for tightening by hand. Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) manufactures it as the OEM at its own factory in Ambala, India.

What Is the Stainless Steel Swivel Bosshead Used For?
Many classic setups need something held at a slant: the sloping condenser of simple laboratory distillation apparatus, a boiling tube angled over a flame, a delivery tube running into a gas jar, or a mirror or lens tilted for an optics experiment. A fixed right-angle bosshead forces the clamp to be twisted or wedged, which is neither safe nor repeatable. With a swivel bosshead the angle is set by rotating the joint and then locking it, so the apparatus sits steadily and the next group can reproduce the same geometry.
Fix the bosshead to the stand rod, fit the clamp or rod in the second bore, swing it to the required angle and tighten the heart screw firmly. Support the weight of glassware while you adjust, and recheck the angle after tightening. The 18/10 stainless steel construction stands up to acids, salt solutions and routine washing in chemistry and biology rooms.
OEM Manufacturer
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited (trading as ScienceLab) is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of this swivel bosshead, which is produced at the company’s own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Because the maker sells direct to schools, colleges, research labs, dealers and importers, questions about matching clamps or a replacement heart screw can be put to the factory itself.
