This replacement stop cock (Code SP1115) is specifically designed for Polylab kipps Apparatus models 55501 (250 ml), 55502 (500 ml), and 55503 (1000 ml). It is an exact replacement part that matches the original equipment specifications. For compatibility with other apparatus, please contact Polylab customer service with your equipment details.
Installation is straightforward: 1) Remove the old stop cock from your kipps apparatus by gently pulling it out of its mounting port, 2) Clean the mounting area thoroughly to remove any debris or old sealant, 3) Apply a small amount of silicone grease to the PTFE plug if desired (though not required for sealing), 4) Insert the new stop cock into the mounting port, ensuring proper alignment, 5) Press firmly to seat it completely, 6) Test for proper operation and leakproof sealing before using the apparatus with reactants. Always follow your apparatus manual for specific instructions.
No, the PTFE plug is self-lubricating and does not require any additional grease or lubricant for smooth operation. This eliminates potential contamination of generated gases and simplifies maintenance. However, some users prefer to apply a very thin layer of silicone grease to the plug to ease installation, which is optional and not required for sealing or operation.
Yes, this stop cock is engineered and manufactured to be absolutely leakproof when properly installed and used. The precision-matched polypropylene body and PTFE plug create a tight seal that prevents escape of gases, including hazardous ones like hydrogen sulfide. This is essential for safe operation of kipps apparatus. Always test for proper sealing before introducing reactants.
This stop cock features a body manufactured from high-quality polypropylene, which offers excellent chemical resistance to dilute acids and durability. The plug is made from self-lubricating PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), which provides smooth operation, chemical resistance, and a leakproof seal without requiring grease.
Replace the stop cock when you notice: 1) Gas leaking when the stop cock is in the closed position, 2) Difficulty turning the plug (sticking or excessive looseness), 3) Visible damage to the plug or body, 4) Staining or degradation of the sealing surfaces, or 5) As part of routine preventive maintenance after extended use.
Both polypropylene and PTFE are autoclavable materials. This stop cock can withstand standard autoclaving temperatures (121°C). However, repeated autoclaving may eventually affect the components over time. For routine decontamination, cleaning with appropriate laboratory disinfectants is often sufficient. If sterilization is required, autoclaving is acceptable.
The polypropylene body offers excellent chemical resistance to dilute acids (such as hydrochloric and sulfuric acids used in kipps apparatus), aqueous solutions, and many organic solvents. The PTFE plug has even broader chemical resistance and is suitable for almost all chemicals encountered in laboratory gas generation. Always consult chemical compatibility charts for specific applications involving aggressive reagents.
This stop cock (Code SP1115) is supplied individually, with one piece per pack. This allows you to order exactly the quantity needed for replacement or spare parts inventory.
