Bends with Thermometer Branch

Bends with Thermometer Branch

Bhanu Scientific Glass Co. offers precision Bends with Thermometer Branch designed for fluid direction changes while allowing temperature monitoring in chemical, pharmaceutical, and laboratory piping systems.

Bends with Thermometer Branch are angled glass pipe components (typically 90°) with an integrated thermometer branch. They are designed for applications where real-time temperature measurement of the flowing fluid is essential. Made from borosilicate glass 3.3, they provide chemical resistance, transparency, and thermal stability.

These bends are commonly used in distillation columns, vacuum pipelines, solvent transfer systems, and other industrial or laboratory setups.
