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. Science Lab Supplies supplies the set from Ambala, India to schools, colleges, contractors and distributors seeking laboratory distillation apparatus in India.
Specifications
All glass parts are borosilicate, which tolerates direct heating and rapid temperature change better than soda-lime glass. Standard 19/26 joints let the flask, still head, condenser and receiver adapter fit together without corks, and let parts 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.
- B.Sc. organic chemistry: simple distillation and solvent extraction practicals.
Never heat a closed system: the receiver end must stay open to air. Clamp the flask and condenser securely and keep flammable solvents 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.

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?
It is supplied by Science Lab Supplies from Ambala, India, which can quote the set together with stands, burners and other chemistry glassware on one list.
How is this different from the fractional distillation assembly?
This set is for simple distillation with a 500 ml flask and adds a separating funnel. The fractional assembly adds a Vigreux column for liquids with close boiling points.
Related Distillation Glassware and Supports
Because the set arrives without stands or heating, most labs order supports alongside it, and some add a fractional set for closer separations. These four Chemistry Lab items complete a working distillation bench.
- Fractional Distillation Assembly — Vigreux column set for closer boiling points.
- Liebig Condenser 200mm — a spare or additional condenser.
- Laboratory Retort Stand — holds the flask and condenser.
- Cast Iron Tripod Stand — supports the flask over a burner.
