Specifications

What Is the Standard Retort Clamp Used For?

A standard retort clamp grips a flask, condenser, test tube or column so it stays steady above a burner or over a collecting vessel. Its shaft locks into a bosshead on a vertical support rod, and the round jaws close around the neck or body of the apparatus. Matching the span to the vessel matters: the 25–60 mm spans suit test tubes and flask necks, while the 80–150 mm spans take larger flasks and columns.

The 18/10 grade of stainless steel is corrosion-resistant and wipes clean after spills, so this clamp is a practical choice for teaching labs, research benches and any chemistry lab equipment set that sees daily use. Tighten the jaws only until the glassware is held firmly, because over-tightening metal jaws can crack glass. Where glass is thin-walled, a strip of rubber or cloth between jaw and vessel spreads the pressure.

What to Specify When Ordering

• Span d — choose 25, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120 or 150 mm to fit the diameter of your apparatus.
• Shaft diameter — the 150 mm clamps have a 10 mm shaft and the 180 mm clamps a 12 mm shaft; check that your bossheads accept it.
• Quantity per size — most labs mix small and large spans, so state the number needed of each.
• Stand parts — add bossheads and stand bases from the list below if you are equipping new stands.

Will the standard retort clamp fit my existing bosshead?
The standard stainless steel retort clamp has a 10 mm shaft on the 150 mm sizes and a 12 mm shaft on the 180 mm sizes. Check that your bosshead opening accepts that diameter, or order matching ScienceLab bossheads together with the clamps.

Who manufactures the Retort Clamp Standard 18/10 Stainless Steel?
Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) manufactures this retort clamp as the OEM at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplies it directly to laboratories, institutions, dealers and importers.

How do I stop the retort clamp from cracking glassware?
Close the round jaws of the standard retort clamp gently until the vessel no longer slips, then stop, because over-tightening metal jaws on glass can cause cracks. For thin-walled glassware, a strip of rubber or cloth between jaw and glass spreads the pressure.
