KIMAX Glass Drain and Vent Systems

Product Description, Applications

KIMAX Glass Drainlines, by SCHOTT North America, Inc., are transparent borosilicate glass pipes and fittings ideal for use in research, schools, industrial labs, hospitals and chemical, food and other processing plants. Designed to be comprehensive, sustainable solutions for acid waste piping and neutralization systems, the glass used for the drainlines is impervious to almost every known corrosive and reagent, including acids that would destroy most plastics.
