Vials, Septa

Short thread vials and micro-vials ND9 with wide opening made of natural or amber PMP or PP are a shatterproof alternative to glass vials.

Micro-inserts made of clear first hydrolytic class glass are suitable for screw neck vials ND8 with small opening.

Snap ring seals ND11 are made of PE and are supplied with fitted septa made of a variety of materials. They are available in a soft and hard version as well as in different colours. Snap ring seals are very easy to use, time-saving and inexpensive.

These septa are temperature-resistant from -60 °C to 200 °C and have better purity than septa made of natural rubber, butyl or red rubber. However, they have less effective resealability properties and are therefore more suitable for single-injection applications.

Septa with a double-sided PTFE coating show a very low particle formation during penetration.

The LABSOLUTE® kits ND9 contain shrink-wrapped short thread vials ND9 made of clear or amber first hydrolytic class glass and corresponding short thread screw caps made of PP.

Kits containing Ultrabond seals are especially for the use with Waters autosamplers.

Snap ring seals ND11 are made of PE and are supplied with fitted septa made of a variety of materials. They are available in a soft and hard version as well as in different colours. Snap ring seals are very easy to use, time-saving and inexpensive.

These septa are temperature-resistant from -40 °C to 120 °C and ideal for multiple injections thanks to their excellent resealability properties.

Screw seals ND13 are made of PP and have a 13-425 thread. They have a 8.5 mm centre hole or are closed. Screw seals are supplied with fitted septa made of a variety of materials or without any septa.

These septa are temperature-resistant from -40 °C to 120 °C and have excellent chemical properties.

Screw neck vials ND24 made of clear and amber first hydrolytic class glass are suitable for EPA (Environmental Protection Association) analysis and can, upon request, be supplied with a sterility certificate that is specifically required for TOC analyses.

These vials are especially used with autosamplers made by Agilent, Dionex, Shimadzu, Tekmar, Thermo Scientific and Varian.

The short thread vials ND9 SureStop are available in clear and amber first hydrolytic class glass and are the best available on the market in terms of seal tightness and reliability. The vials have an additional stopper ring at the end of the thread which clearly marks the end point in the screwing-in process. This ensures that the tightness of the seal is independent of the touch or feel of the user screwing the stopper in. This ensures the lowest possible number of standard deviations and high reproducibility of analysis results.

Crimp and headspace seals ND20 are made of aluminium and are supplied with fitted septa made of a variety of materials. There are the following different types of caps available:

Plain caps with a 10 mm center hole. These caps are suitable for standard applications. They are available in several colours on request.

Clear lacquered caps, so called headspace caps, with a special score line that breaks when the internal pressure reaches 3.0 ± 0.5 bar. The excess pressure is then released, and the risk of the vial exploding can be avoided.

Clear lacquered centre tear-off caps and complete tear-off caps. These caps are available in several colours on request.

Gold lacquered, magnetic crimp caps with 5 mm centre hole to be used with CE HS500/HS800, CTC 500, as well as Fisons HS500 / HS800 instruments.

Gold lacquered, magnetic crimp caps with 8 mm centre hole to be used with CTC Combi PAL instruments.

Red lacquered, magnetic bimetal crimp caps with 8 mm centre hole to be used with CTC Combi PAL instruments.

These grey septa are temperature-resistant from -40 °C to 120 °C and have excellent chemical properties. They are 3.0 mm thick and have a hardness of 50° shore A.

Also on Pharma-Fix seals, it is only the butyl areas that can come into contact with the sample, and these are PTFE coated. The areas that abut the edges of the glass are not coated. This ensures a particularly good seal.

Screw neck vials ND10 with 10-425 thread facilitate easy filling with viscous substances thanks to their wide opening. The vials are available in clear and amber first hydrolytic class glass.
