250ml Bump Trap 24/40 Male to 24/40 Female

Bump traps are used on rotary evaporators between the evaporating flask and condensing column. They help prevent contamination in the collection vessel when “bumping” occurs. When “bumping” occurs substance in the evaporating flask shoots up and ends up in the collection flask, which is unwanted when operating.

This bump trap features a 250ML round flask with upper 24/40 female ground joint and bottom 24/40 male ground joint. With the use of ground joints vacuum grease must be applied to assure a tight seal. Internally, there is a tube that extends and two openings on the sides. This is what stops the bumping from occurring. If any substance makes its way through the openings, it will get trapped in the flask. Vapor is still allowed to flow freely through the openings. Recommend using this bump trap on 2L rotary evaporators and other distillation setups  it has an overall length of 9".
