Can you post a working link?

Stick around. Keep reading. Those privileges will come.

Here's an Imgur album I just uploaded a bunch of screenshots to - https://imgur.com/a/24-45-gl45-adaptor-vHJwzqn
But since I know people don't like clicking on links, here's a few pictures from the post:

- Stainless Steel Tri-Clamp x Female Joint Adapter [1.5" Tri-Clamp x 24/40 Female] https://shopbvv.com/products/stainless-steel-tri-clamp-x-female-joint-adapter
- GL45 open top cap, found on Ebay (example: https://www.ebay.com/itm/196793301881) 
- Silicone seals for GL45 caps (cheap on Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BR9CDZFL)

Now this solution works great for me, but when getting this post ready for yall, I stumbled across something that might work better: https://www.laborxing.com/collections/stoppers/products/gl45-screw-cap-with-ptfe-joint-adapter?variant=46214047531225

Thanks. Did a couple of edits upthread & in tricks of the trade to make things easier…

Perfect! Thank you for posting that.

Sorry for all the hassle with the links and images. Thanks for being patient though. ky_cbd was kind enough to give me a promotion so I should be able to post links/images if anyone needs anything I haven’t yet included.

I ended up purchasing one of the $35 GL45 to 24/29 adaptors I tried to link to earlier (here, which I also just found on AliExpress in PTFE, PBT and PP) just because I’m curious if they’re going to be better than my DIY work-around. I’ll be sure to post an update once I test it out.
