Alternatives to the discontinued Sure-Fit™ fittings

Tags: , |

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?

Tags: , , |

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

Making the perfect (U)HPLC column connection

The IDEX Super Flangeless™ Fittings are unmatched in sealing performance and pressure tolerance for flat-bottom ports. The construction is based on a biocompatible ferrule that seals the liquid path,

Connecting peristaltic pump tubing to a threaded port

Tags: , , |

There are several options for connecting flexible soft-walled peristaltic pump tubing (e.g. Tygon® and PharMed®) to threaded ports for further transfer of liquids into a fluidic system. Due to
