Adapter (Alunge)
Product Code : SCL-CL-11470
Adapter (Alunge) (SKU SCL-CL-11470), often spelt allonge and also called a receiver adapter, is a 150 mm clear glass tube that carries condensed liquid from the end of a condenser into the receiving flask. It is a small but necessary part of distillation set-ups in school, college and training chemistry labs. Science Lab Supplies, working from Ambala, India, supplies it to schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The adapter is made of clear refractory glass that resists both heat and chemicals, so hot distillate and common laboratory solvents pass through it without attacking the tube. Its 150 mm length bridges the gap between the condenser outlet and the mouth of the receiver.

Applications and Experiments for the Adapter (Alunge)
The allonge is used at the delivery end of a distillation train, guiding distillate from the condenser into a flask or receiver without splashing or loss. It appears in separation and purification practicals from Class 9 science to B.Sc. organic chemistry and in water-distillation work.
- Class 9 science: separating a mixture of two miscible liquids by distillation.
- Class 11 chemistry: purification of organic compounds by simple distillation.
- B.Sc. organic practicals: collecting fractions from a Liebig condenser.
- Preparing distilled water on a small scale for school experiments.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Adapter (Alunge) is supplied as a single clear refractory-glass tube, 150 mm long, as described above. The condenser, flasks, stoppers and connecting tubing for a complete distillation set are separate items that can be listed on the same quotation.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
We can quote a single adapter as a replacement part or a batch to equip every distillation bench. The quotation sets out packing, delivery time and price for that quantity, and a full kit of laboratory distillation apparatus in India, condenser and flasks included, can be priced together.
Science Lab Supplies holds an Importer-Exporter Code as a registered exporter and is able to ship to buyers in Oman, the Philippines, Nepal, Bangladesh, Zambia and Rwanda. Write in via the contact page, gather glassware in the enquiry cart, or use the lab tender page for bulk tenders.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is an allonge used for in distillation?
It connects the outlet of the condenser to the receiving flask, directing the condensed liquid into the receiver so that none is lost and the collection point stays tidy.
How long is the adapter?
The adapter is 150 mm long and made of clear, heat- and chemical-resistant refractory glass.
Who supplies the Adapter (Alunge)?
Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India, supplies the adapter as part of its laboratory glassware range and handles quotation and dispatch for schools, colleges, contractors and distributors.
Can I order it with a condenser and flasks?
Yes. List the condenser, distillation flask and receiver you need and they will be quoted together, so a complete distillation set arrives in one consignment.
Related Distillation Glassware
A working distillation set needs a boiling flask, a condenser and a receiver as well as the adapter. The four items below fill those positions and are commonly ordered with the allonge on one quotation.
- Straight Cooler (Condenser) — 480 mm Liebig type glass condenser.
- Liebig Condenser 200mm — shorter condenser for compact set-ups.
