Cork is a traditional jaw lining because it is slightly compressible and a poor conductor of heat, so it moulds gently around a flask neck or condenser and cushions glass that is warm from a heating setup. To mount the clamp, slide the bosshead onto a stand rod of up to 15 mm diameter, tighten it at the working height, then close the cork-lined jaws around the apparatus until it no longer turns.
Because the clamp and bosshead come together, a teacher or technician can equip a new stand in one step, and the diecast alloy body suits everyday school, college and research use as part of a chemistry lab equipment set. Cork liners can dry out over the years, so wipe them with a dry cloth rather than solvents and keep the clamp away from strong heat when stored.
This cork-jaw clamp is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited (CIN U29309HR2020PTC087597), which trades as ScienceLab and acts as its OEM. Production takes place at the company's own licensed factory at 449, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, Haryana (Factory Licence AMB-ONLINE-CHD-J-414), and finished clamps go directly to laboratories, schools, dealers and importers in India and international markets. Buying from the maker keeps quotations, repeat orders and spare-part questions in one place, so just ask us. More detail is on the ScienceLab company profile.
