Hoffman Clips are laboratory tools used to control the flow of liquids or gases through flexible tubing. Designed with a screw mechanism, these clips compress tubing to restrict, regulate, or completely stop the passage of fluids. Made from durable metals like nickel-plated brass or stainless steel, Hoffman Clips are chemically resistant, reusable, and adjustable to fit different tubing sizes. Commonly used in laboratory setups involving distillation, filtration, and fluid transfer, they provide a simple and effective method for managing fluid control without disconnecting the tubing.
