What “Double Outlet” Means in Practice
The double-outlet build is the reason to choose the JH-GF001, so it helps to know exactly how it works:
- Two independently controlled outlets — Each outlet has its own knob, so you open and adjust each one separately, not from a shared handle.
- Two gas points from one fitting — Both outlets sit in a single deck-mounted body, so you get two controlled gas connections without installing two separate taps.
- Fewer deck penetrations — One fitting means one hole in the worktop instead of two, keeping the bench tidy and the installation cleaner.
- Shared or dual-task use — Two users can work side by side, or one person can dedicate each outlet to a different burner or task.
If your bench needs two controlled gas points at a single location — for two users or two tasks — the JH-GF001 provides that in a single deck-mounted installation.
GF001 vs Adjacent Gas Fitting Models
All of these are laboratory gas fittings that share the same core build — solid brass, epoxy finish, slow-opening needle valve with press-and-turn safety. The difference is the outlet count and where each one mounts:
- JH-GF001 (deck-mounted, double outlet): Two independently controlled outlets from one bench fitting. Best for shared benches and dual-task stations where two gas points belong at one location.
- JH-GF009 (worktop-mounted, single outlet): One dedicated gas point per workstation. Best where each bench position needs its own single tap rather than two grouped outlets.
- JH-GF006 (wall-mounted, single outlet): Fixed to a wall or panel, keeping the bench clear. Best where gas plumbing runs along the wall.
- JH-GF003 (suspended-mounted, single outlet): Hung from an overhead service point, delivering gas from above. Best for island benches or service spines fed overhead.
- JH-GF008 (remote fume hood gas valve): A two-part control system for fume hoods, operated from outside the enclosure. Best where gas control must stay clear of the hood work zone.
Choose the JH-GF001 when you want two controlled gas points from one deck fitting. Choose the single-outlet GF009 when each position needs just one tap. If you’re unsure, tell us how many gas points each bench needs and how the gas reaches it, and we’ll recommend the right model.

Key Features
1. Two Independently Controlled Outlets
Each of the two outlets has its own knob, so users adjust them separately. Two people can work at one station, or one person can assign each outlet to a different burner or task — all from a single deck-mounted fitting.
2. One Fitting Instead of Two Taps
Both outlets sit in a single deck-mounted body, so you get two controlled gas points from a single mounting hole instead of two. That means fewer deck penetrations and a cleaner, more organized bench.
3. Slow-Opening Needle Valve with Press-and-Turn Safety
The slow-opening action brings gas up gradually rather than surging when you open the outlet, and the needle-valve design lets you fine-tune the flow for controlled, steady delivery. The press-and-turn safety function requires a deliberate press before the knob turns, helping prevent accidental gas release from a bump or knock.
4. Solid Brass Body
A rigid, corrosion-resistant brass body built for consistent sealing and long service under regular bench use, holding a tight closure through repeated daily operation.
5. Matte Epoxy Powder Coating
A protective finish that helps the outer body resist routine acid/alkali splash, UV fading, and heat in general lab conditions, keeping the surface clean over time.
6. Ergonomic High-Grade PP Knobs
Each outlet is opened by a comfortable, high-grade PP knob shaped for a secure grip and steady control, easy to operate through frequent daily use. The knobs are also available in custom colors for gas-type identification across a lab.
Applications
The JH-GF001 is built for shared, bench-side work where two controlled gas points help:
- Shared benches — Two independently controlled outlets allow two users to draw gas at once from a single deck point.
- Dual-task stations — Dedicate one outlet to each burner or task, without switching back and forth on a single tap.
- Two-point bench gas supply — Any standard worktop where two controlled gas outlets belong at one location.
- Space-conscious layouts — benches that reduce deck penetrations and group gas points into a single fitting keep the surface clear.
Its primary role is dual-point gas control at the bench, providing shared and dual-task stations with two clear, dependable outlets from a single deck fitting.
Installation & Compatibility
The JH-GF001 mounts through a standard laboratory worktop and connects to your bench gas service. Because it carries two outlets in one fitting, a few checks help ensure a secure, correctly matched fit:
- Confirm the deck hole in your worktop matches the fitting base for a firm, stable mount.
- Allow bench space for two outlets so users can work side by side without crowding.
- Confirm the inlet connection matches your bench gas line and pipe fitting.
- Confirm the gas type — the right connector and configuration depend on the gas medium, so share your gas service details before ordering.
- Confirm the worktop material — let us know your countertop type if you’d like guidance on mounting before shipment.
Share your worktop details, gas type, and inlet connection, and we’ll confirm the right configuration for your installation.
FAQ
What does “double outlet” mean on the JH-GF001?
It means the fitting has two separate gas outlets in one deck-mounted body, each with its own knob. You control each outlet independently, so they don’t share a single handle. It works as two taps in one fitting, mounted at a single bench point — so two users or two tasks can draw gas at once.
Are the two outlets independently controlled?
Yes. Each outlet has its own knob, so you open, close, and adjust each one individually. That lets two users set different flows at the same station without affecting each other.
When should I choose the GF001 instead of the single-outlet GF009?
Choose the JH-GF001 when you want two controlled gas points from a single deck fitting — for shared benches or dual-task work where two outlets belong at a single location. Choose the single-outlet GF009 when each workstation needs just one dedicated gas point. It comes down to how many gas points each bench position needs.
Is one double-outlet fitting better than two separate single taps?
Often, yes, when two gas points belong at the same spot. One fitting means one deck hole instead of two, fewer penetrations in the worktop, and two gas points grouped in a single, tidy location. If your gas points are spread across separate positions, individual single taps like the GF009 may suit better. Tell us your layout, and we’ll advise.
How does the slow-opening needle valve with press-and-turn safety work?
The slow-opening action brings the gas up gradually when you open the outlet, rather than letting it surge, and the needle-valve design lets you fine-tune the flow for steady, controlled delivery. The press-and-turn safety function means you have to press the knob before it turns, so an accidental bump or knock won’t release gas on its own.
Which gases does the JH-GF001 work with?
It’s designed for standard laboratory gas service, but the appropriate connector and configuration depend on the specific gas. Rather than assume, we recommend confirming your gas type before ordering so we can match the correct configuration for safe, reliable operation. Share your gas type with our team, and we’ll confirm the right version.
Can the handles be color-coded to identify gas?
Yes. The ergonomic PP knobs are available in custom colors, so you can color-code gas types across your lab for faster identification. If you’re standardizing multiple benches, let us know your color scheme, and we’ll match it.
What does the epoxy coating protect against?
The matte epoxy powder coating protects the fitting’s exterior, helping it resist routine acid and alkali splashes, UV fading, and heat under general lab conditions. It’s an external protective finish — for specific or aggressive chemical exposure, send us the details, and we’ll confirm suitability.
What should I confirm before ordering?
Confirm four things: your deck hole size, available bench space for two outlets, your inlet connection, and your gas type. Checking these in advance helps ensure a secure, correctly matched dual-outlet gas point. Share your setup, and we’ll confirm compatibility.
How do I request a quote?
