Wanted: 14/23 female to 24/29 male adapter

Sulaiman - 24-9-2018 at 13:06

To use my 14/23 thermometer with my 24/29 glassware I want a short adapter that looks similar to this

Ideally I would like 14/23 to 24/29,
but any female ST/NS 14 to male ST/NS 29 would do,
if short like in the photograph.

Can anyone sell, swap, or point to, one ?

What part of the world?
In the US:
http://unitedglasstech.com/Adapters.htm
They have 14/20 - 24/40 since that is the US 'standard'

But guessing you aren't in the US since you are using the International 'standard'.

Thanks but ...

Thank you for responding,
but the adapters pointed to are too long,
the thermometer bulb would be inside the adapter.

I guess the shape that I wanted is only available in plain glass for smoking paraphernalia.

I'll have to make a plan-B :P

I sent you a U2U and an email Sulaiman

If you fail to source a glass one you could fabricate a PTFE sleeve from a bar of PTFE, if you have access to a lathe. Of cause that would limit the max use temperature to about 200C.

What would I do without SM and its members ?

Thanks for the replies,

DJF90 has kindly offered a different but suitable adapter.

Problem Solved.
