| HPLC Tubing |
|
When ordering HPLC tubing it is important to choose the correct material (steel, PEEK, PTFE or tygon) the outer diameter (1/16" or 1/8") and the internal diameter (0.010", 0.020", 0.030", 0.04" etc) Use high pressure tubing from
the pump through to the detector. |
| Steel Tubing |
| Strong - doesn't
kink or weaken when bent. Universal - can be used with all solvents. Will support the weight of most columns. Will stay in shape. NB Not suitable for Ion chromatography as it can introduce traces of Fe, Mn, Cr etc. |
| PEEK Tubing |
| No metal ions. Unsuitable for use with Tetrahydrofuran (THF). Will kink and then leak if bent sharply. Will not stay in shape without corner guide. |
| PTFE Tubing |
| Much softer therefore
less able to withstand high pressure. Inert. Suitable for solvent inlet lines and waste outlet from the detector. |
| Tygon Tubing |
| Soft, low pressure tubing for piston backwash |
