This connector is used with plastic tubing and is inserted into a rubber stopper (which is in turn inserted into a waste flask). The 'wings' are for holding the tubing in place. Previously this connector is believed to have been bought through Fisher Scientific, but recent searches (with out knowing the name of this item) have not yielded results. If anyone has any suggestions of where to obtain this or what this is called it would be greatly appreciated.
This looks a little like a spring clamp, though not any of the ones presently sold by Fisher. Is the purpose just to hold tubing leading into a waste flask? I have been using a clamp-free setup that I put together by forcing a cut piece of a plastic 5-mL pipet through the stopper. The outside diameter of the pipet is just a little bigger than the waste line, so the waste line fits snugly, even under vacuum. You could probably use a small hose clamp from an auto parts store.
in my place, we call it 'adapter' or 'adaptor'
Can't see the image. Is it a condenser?
