Boss Head Clip White (Screw Fixture For Iron Stand)

Boss Head Clamp is a piece of laboratory equipment commonly used in chemistry and other scientific fields to hold or secure various pieces of apparatus, such as test tubes, burettes, or condensers, onto a support stand (usually a retort stand). It is an essential tool for performing experiments that require stability and precise positioning of apparatus.

Key Features of a Boss Head Clamp:

1. Clamp Mechanism: The clamp consists of two jaws or arms that can be adjusted to hold objects of different sizes. It can be tightened or loosened using a screw or thumb wheel, allowing for a secure grip on the apparatus.

2. Adjustable Design: The Boss head is adjustable and can be rotated or tilted to place the apparatus at the desired angle or height. This makes it versatile for various experiments that require precise positioning.

3. Compatibility with Support Stands: The Boss head fits onto the vertical rod of a retort stand or clamp stand. This allows the apparatus to be securely mounted and adjusted in height or angle while keeping it stable during use.

4. Materials: Boss head clamps are made of stainless steel  and are powder coated white for durability and resistance to corrosion. The jaws or gripping parts may have rubber or plastic coatings to prevent damage to delicate glassware.

Common Uses:

• Holding Burettes: In titrations, where a burette needs to be held vertically and securely.
• Supporting Condensers: In distillation or reflux setups, to hold a condenser in place while it is connected to a heat source.
• Stabilizing Glassware: Holding flasks, test tubes, or other containers while being heated, stirred, or otherwise manipulated.

The Boss head clamp is a versatile, essential tool in laboratory setups, helping ensure that experiments can be conducted safely and accurately.
