HPLC PEEK Hexagon Head Fitting (10-32 UNF for 1/16" OD Tubing) conform to the following Standards/Norms:
The PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) HPLC PEEK Hexagon Head Fitting is a specialised part manufactured for 1/16” (OD) capillary tubes used in HPLC (High-Performance Liquid Chromatography) systems. This hexagonal head fitting ensures a reliable performance by connecting the capillary tube to the HPLC system in a safe and leak-free manner.
Thread size: 10-32 UNF
Thread length: 0.42" (10.74mm) Material: PEEK
Features: Integrated ferrule / Hexagon head fitting.
Torque Application: The hexagon head allows for precise torque application during tightening, ensuring consistent compression of the ferrule or sealant, which is crucial for maintaining a leak-free connection in HPLC systems.
Compatibility with Tools: Hexagon heads are compatible with standard wrenches or spanners, making them easy to use with existing tools in the laboratory. This facilitates efficient assembly and disassembly of fittings during setup, maintenance, or troubleshooting.
Improved Seal Integrity: Provides a secure and leak-tight connection between the fitting and the tubing or column, maintaining the integrity of the chromatographic system and ensuring accurate analytical results.
Time Savings: Saves time during initial setup and when replacing columns or making adjustments to the chromatographic system, improving overall laboratory efficiency
Chemical Resistance: PEEK is highly resistant to a wide range of chemicals and solvents commonly used in HPLC applications, ensuring compatibility and durability in aggressive chemical environments.
Temperature Stability: PEEK maintains its mechanical properties and dimensional stability at elevated temperatures, which is critical for HPLC systems operating under high temperature conditions.
Mechanical Strength: PEEK hexagon head fittings provide excellent mechanical strength and toughness, ensuring reliable performance and long-term durability in chromatographic applications.
Low Extractables: PEEK has low levels of extractables, minimizing the risk of contamination to samples and ensuring accurate analytical results in chromatography.
Dimensional Stability: PEEK maintains tight tolerances and dimensional stability under varying pressures and temperatures, ensuring consistent performance and reliable sealing of fittings.
Lightweight: PEEK is lightweight yet strong, facilitating easier handling during installation and maintenance of HPLC systems without compromising on durability or performance.
Biocompatibility: PEEK is biocompatible, making it suitable for HPLC applications involving biological samples or pharmaceutical analyses where purity and safety are critical.
Longevity: PEEK fittings have a long service life due to their resistance to wear, corrosion, and degradation, reducing the need for frequent replacement and maintenance costs.
Column Connections:
HPLC PEEK hexagon head fittings are utilized to connect columns to other components in the chromatographic system, such as detectors or pumps. Their robust hexagon heads allow for secure tightening with tools, ensuring a leak-free connection and stable chromatographic performance.
Injector Ports:
These fittings are employed at injector ports in HPLC systems where precise control of sample introduction is crucial. The hexagon head facilitates controlled torque application during installation, maintaining the integrity of the injector system and minimizing sample carryover.
Detector Fittings:
HPLC PEEK hexagon head fittings are used to connect detectors to the chromatographic flow path. Their hexagon design enables technicians to securely fasten the fittings, ensuring reliable detection of analytes without the risk of leakage or system instability.
Mobile Phase Connections:
In mobile phase delivery systems, PEEK hexagon head fittings are applied to connect tubing from the solvent reservoirs to the HPLC system. Their robust construction and torque-appropriate head allow for dependable sealing and efficient solvent delivery throughout chromatographic runs.
Guard Column Installation:
When installing guard columns in HPLC systems, these fittings secure the guard column in place with precise torque control. This enables easy replacement or adjustment of guard columns during method development or routine maintenance without compromising system integrity.
Tubing Connections:
HPLC PEEK hexagon head fittings are used to connect various tubing sections within the chromatographic system. Their reliable sealing capabilities and ease of tightening ensure consistent flow paths and minimal dead volumes, optimizing chromatographic performance.
Pre-column Filters:
These fittings are employed at pre-column filter locations in HPLC setups to ensure effective filtration and clean sample introduction into the analytical column. The hexagon head allows for precise adjustment and tightening of filters, maintaining sample integrity and system cleanliness.
