The Inter-Joint 35/25 Oldershaw Column is a used laboratory glass mixing column designed for solution mixing, vapor handling, thermal isolation, and specialized chemical processing workflows. Constructed from borosilicate glass, this 35/25 silver vacuum jacketed Oldershaw mixing column features internal protrusions positioned closely together to promote excellent mixing of liquid samples or solutions.
Unlike a traditional plated Oldershaw distillation column, which uses perforated trays and downcomers to create theoretical stages for fractional distillation, this Inter-Joint column is designed with internal protrusions that help increase contact, turbulence, and mixing within the column. This makes it useful for laboratories that need improved interaction between flowing liquids, vapors, or solution phases in a controlled glassware setup.
The silver coating on the vacuum-jacketed column helps reduce heat transfer by radiation, supporting more stable internal temperature conditions during laboratory workflows where heat loss or thermal fluctuation may affect performance.

This Inter-Joint 35/25 Oldershaw mixing column is designed to support efficient mixing inside a borosilicate glass column. The internal protrusions create repeated flow disruption, helping increase contact between sample phases as liquid or vapor moves through the column.
This design can be useful for workflows involving:
Because the protrusions are close together, the column provides more internal contact points than a plain glass tube, helping improve mixing behavior in suitable lab setups.
This Inter-Joint column includes a silver vacuum jacket. The silver coating on a vacuum-jacketed glass column is used primarily to reduce heat transfer by radiation.
Thermal stability can be important when working with temperature-sensitive solutions, vapors, or process streams. The silvered vacuum jacket helps limit radiant heat exchange between the column interior and the surrounding lab environment.
A silver vacuum jacket helps support:
For laboratories working with chemical separation, sample preparation, or vapor liquid contact applications, this type of jacketed glassware can help improve process consistency.
This used Inter Joint Oldershaw mixing column is equipped with 35/25 top and bottom joints, making it suitable for compatible laboratory glassware assemblies using 35/25 ground glass connections.
The 35/25 joint format may be used with compatible:
Because the column has 35/25 joints on both ends, it can be integrated into compatible workflows where secure glassware connections and controlled internal flow are needed.
The column is constructed from borosilicate glass, a standard material for laboratory glassware due to its chemical resistance, thermal stability, and visibility during operation.
Borosilicate glass benefits include:
This makes the Inter-Joint 35/25 Oldershaw mixing column a practical choice for laboratories that need visible, chemically resistant glassware for mixing, vapor transfer, or process development work.
This column is listed with no corrugated vacuum jacket or expansion bellows. That means it has a more rigid silver vacuum jacket design compared with some vacuum-jacketed columns that include bellows for thermal expansion flexibility.
Because this is a used vacuum jacketed glass column, buyers should verify the glass condition, silvering, vacuum jacket integrity, and joint condition before use.
