DuraCap™ capillary columns blend unmatched packing stability, strength, and performance in one convenient platform. These durable column systems eliminate bending, breaking, and bed disruption during the packing process and operation

DuraCap™ capillary columns blend unmatched packing stability, strength, and performance in one convenient platform. These durable column systems eliminate bending, breaking, and bed disruption during the packing process and operation. DuraCap end fittings are made from stainless steel and engage with the threaded protective outer shell of the capillary column. The end fitting engages the threads and captures the frit cap to create a secure, near zero dead volume connection.

Benefits

  • Performance of a stainless steel capillary
  • Strength of conventional larger column hardware

Features

  • Robust capillary hardware
  • Inner diameters from 100 to 500 microns
  • High performance 316 stainless capillary mounted inside a reinforced column casing
  • 316 stainless steel woven mesh screen frits
  • Low-volume, leak-tight connections

Maximizing Performance of Capillary Columns
All HPLC capillary columns, including DuraCap, must be run on LC instruments specifically made for reliable low flow rates (<100 µL/min) and submicroliter sample volumes. All extracolumn volume must be kept to an absolute minimum.
