Distillation Apparatus
Product Code : LSK-CL-10240
Distillation Apparatus (SKU LSK-CL-10240) is a borosilicate glass set for simple distillation, built around a 500 ml round-bottom boiling flask, still head and Liebig condenser joined by 19/26 ground-glass joints. A separating funnel is included for work with immiscible liquids. It serves school chemistry from Class 9 separation methods to senior-secondary and college organic practicals. Buyers seeking laboratory distillation apparatus in India, from schools and colleges to contractors and distributors, can source the set from Science Lab Supplies in Ambala.
Specifications
Component by component, the distillation set is listed in the table below. In short, every glass part is borosilicate, and standard 19/26 joints link the 500 ml round-bottom flask, still head, Liebig condenser and receiver adapter without corks, so parts can be swapped with other 19/26 glassware already in the lab.

Applications and Experiments for the Distillation Apparatus
The set separates a liquid from dissolved solids or from a liquid with a clearly different boiling point: the mixture boils in the flask, vapour passes the still head and condenses in the Liebig condenser, and pure distillate collects via the adapter. The separating funnel splits immiscible layers such as oil and water.
- Class 9 science (NCERT): obtaining pure water from salt water and separating immiscible liquids.
- Class 11 chemistry: purification of organic compounds by distillation, reading the vapour temperature at the still head with a Glass Thermometer.
- B.Sc. organic chemistry: simple distillation and solvent extraction practicals.
Heat the flask with an Adjustable Bunsen Gas Burner with Control Valve and hold the condenser in a Retort Stand with Boss Head and Clamp. Never heat a closed system: the receiver end must stay open to air, and flammable solvents must be kept away from open flames.
Standard Scope of Supply
The set comprises the Liebig condenser, receiver adapter, 500 ml round-bottom boiling flask, still head, and separating funnel with stopper. It is supplied without a glass beaker or metal stands; the retort stand, burner and tripod are not included and can be quoted separately.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Quotations cover anything from a single set to one per student pair across several labs, and each states the packing, delivery time and price for the quantity asked. Retort stands, tripods and spare borosilicate laboratory glassware in India can be listed in the same request.
Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Nepal, Bangladesh, Zambia, Rwanda, South Africa and Qatar as a registered exporter holding an Importer-Exporter Code. Science Lab Supplies is registered for GST (GSTIN 06ADEPJ0574F2ZU). Glassware lists can be sent through the contact page or gathered in the enquiry cart, and institutions buying by tender can follow the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What joint size does the set use?
All ground-glass joints are 19/26, so the parts fit each other directly and are interchangeable with other 19/26 flasks, adapters and condensers.
Are the stand and burner included?
No. The set comes without a glass beaker or metal stands, and the retort stand, burner and tripod are not included. Add them to your enquiry if you need a complete bench set-up.
Who supplies the Distillation Apparatus?
Science Lab Supplies supplies the distillation set from Ambala, India and can include stands, tripods, burners and spare 19/26 glassware on the same quotation for your laboratory.
How is this different from the fractional distillation assembly?
This set is for simple distillation with a 500 ml flask and includes a separating funnel. The fractional assembly uses a 250 ml flask with a Vigreux column, an Erlenmeyer receiver and four joint clips, for liquids with closer boiling points.
Related Distillation Glassware and Supports
Because the set arrives without stands or heating, supports and a heat-spreading gauze can be quoted alongside it, and a fractional set or extra condenser extends the range of separations. These Chemistry Lab and Laboratory Funnel items complete a working distillation bench.
