Bunsen Burner Nipple

Whatsapp Order

The Bunsen Burner Nipple is a small but essential laboratory component that connects the gas supply tubing to the Bunsen burner. Typically made from brass or other corrosion-resistant metals, the nipple ensures a secure and leak-proof connection between the gas source and the burner, facilitating safe and efficient gas flow for flame ignition. Designed for durability and compatibility with standard laboratory gas hoses, it supports reliable operation during heating and combustion experiments.
