What Is the Boss Head Used For?
A boss head is the connector of a retort stand: it grips the upright rod and holds the shank of a clamp, ring or cross rod at the height the experiment needs. In school and college labs it carries a burette clamp for titrations, a ring for a filter funnel or a gauze over a burner, and a flask or condenser clamp for heating and distillation; physics benches use the same arrangement to hang a pendulum or hold a sensor. Tighten each screw firmly onto the rod without forcing it, and keep heavy glassware low and over the stand base so the assembly stays stable.
Frequently Asked Questions
What rod size does this boss head fit?
Rods up to 16 mm in diameter. JLab’s own 12 mm retort stand rod, linked below, is within that range; for other stands, check the rod diameter before ordering.
What is it made of?
The body is zinc alloy and the clamping screws are plated. The listing does not state the plating type or the jaw layout, so ask JLab if either matters for your apparatus.
Are the stand, rod and clamps included?
No. This listing covers the boss head only; the retort stand rod, stand clamp and other parts are separate items that can be added to one enquiry.
What should I send for an export quotation?
The quantity, the destination country and port or city, your delivery terms (for example FOB or CIF), packing or labelling needs, and any tender reference.
Who manufactures this boss head?
JLab (Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd) makes it at its works in Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplies it direct.

JLab is the trading name of Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, a school lab equipment manufacturer incorporated in 2017 and based on Hargolal Road, Ambala, Haryana, India. The boss head is produced in JLab’s own works and not sourced from a trader, which lets schools, colleges, dealers and importers buy direct from the factory; each piece is visually inspected before dispatch, and repeat orders are handled by the maker.
