The legacy Sure-Fit™ connectors have been obsoleted since quite some time, but there are certainly modern fitting alternatives that can accomplish similarly or better tubing connections. As outlined below,

How much backpressure is my tubing generating?

Admin-Tobias2025-03-25T16:46:38+01:00Tags: Flow components, Technical support, Tubing|

Tubing in (U)HPLC instruments and other precision fluidic systems will cause a pressure drop when fluids are pumped through them. This backpressure is proportional to the volumetric flow rate
