5L Short Path Distillation Kit - 5000 mL Flask - 45/50 Main Neck

Complete Glass Setup for Batch Separation Runs - 5L

Sourcing flasks, heads, traps, clamps and stands separately makes it easy to end up with parts that do not fit together. This 5L short path distillation kit bundles the glassware, heating mantle, controller, thermocouple and support hardware into a single order. The fittings are matched across the set, with 45/50 main necks on the flask and head and 24/40 ports for the cold traps.

With a 5L (5000 mL) flask, this unit suits processing teams and serious indoor growers who run regular batches and want more headroom than a benchtop starter set. Expect a batch time of roughly 4-8 hours.

Key Features & Benefits

• 5L (5000 mL) flask with 45/50 main and 24/40 side necks — handles larger batches in a single run.
• Distillation head with 45/50, 24/40 and 34/45 ports — gives you separate connections for the flask, top fitting and side take-off.
• 34/45 isolation adapter — lets you change receiving flasks through its 24/40 outlet and bottom discharge.
• Male and female 24/40 cold traps with lids — add condensing capacity between the setup and your vacuum source.
• Mantle, controller, thermocouple, clamps and lab stands included — cuts the number of extra parts you must buy.

Who Should Use 5L Short Path Distillation Kit

This kit suits lab managers, commercial processors and experienced home growers who separate plant-derived material in batches and need a full set of matched glassware and supports. Check your local rules before processing any material.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What size is the main flask?
A: The main flask holds 5L, or 5000 mL. It has a 45/50 main neck and a 24/40 side neck.

Q: How long does a typical batch take?
A: The listed batch time is 4-8 hours. Actual time depends on your material, vacuum and temperature settings.

Q: What does the isolation adapter do?
A: It sits between the head and your receiving flask so you can swap flasks more easily. Its inlet is 34/45, with a 24/40 outlet and a 24/40 bottom discharge.

Q: What do the numbers like 24/40 mean?
A: They describe standard ground-glass fitting sizes. The first number is the diameter at the wide end in millimetres, and the second is the length of the ground surface. Matching numbers fit together.

Q: Does the kit include a heating mantle and controller?
A: Yes. The packing list includes a 5L mantle, a controller, a thermocouple and the cords.
